These crisp-tender, mildly spiced beans are novel enough to be interesting, familiar enough to be comforting.
Bring all ingredients to a boil in a 12-inch heavy skillet, then simmer briskly, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until beans are crisp-tender and liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, 6 to 9 minutes.
