SERVINGS: 8
CATEGORY: Low Fat
METHOD: Grill (gas or charcoal)
TIME: Prep: 20 min. Grill: 20 min.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1-1/2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed
1 medium red onion, halved and thinly sliced
