Step 1

In a large pot over high heat, warm the olive oil. Add the ground beef and cook for 6–7 minutes, breaking it up until browned.

Step 2

Season the meat with 1 tablespoon of seven spices, then proceed to add the frozen or fresh cup of chopped Italian green beans (regular green beans can be used).

Step 3

Pour in enough water to cover the beans by about 1½ inches. Add bouillon cubes, remaining 1 tablespoon of seven spices, and salt. Stir well.

Step 4

Bring to a boil, then lower to medium heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk the flour with ½ cup cold water until smooth (slurry). Add a ladle of hot broth from the pot into the slurry, whisk again, then slowly stir it back into the stew to thicken.

Step 6

Simmer for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender and the broth slightly thickened.

Step 7

Stir in lemon juice at the end, adjust seasoning, and serve hot with rice or quinoa.
