Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |

| ⅓ | cup | Water chestnuts; thin sliced |
| 2 | tablespoons | Butter |
| Salt & pepper | ||
| 1 | tablespoon | Parsley; finely chopped |
Directions
Yard-long beans are a great delicacy with their tender, string-less, quick-cooking qualities. They are an asset to any fast stir-fry dish paired with shrimp or beef. Or try them with water chestnuts in this manner.
Trim ends from beans and cut in 1-inch lengths. Cook in a small amount of boiling salted water for 3 to 5 minutes, or just until tender; drain. Add water chestnuts, butter and salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with parsley. Makes about 4 servings.
