Haricots Verts With Carmelized Shallots

I love the tiny little green beans i can find packaged in some grocery stores labeled haricots verts! i can just eat them like candy, but they are even better cooked this way!

Steps

Cook the green beans in boiling salted water to cover 3 to 4 minutes , or until crisp tender.
Drain.
Plunge the beans into ice water to stop the cooking process.
Drain.
Melt the butter and brown sugar with olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add shallots , and saute 2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium-low , add vinegar , and saute 10 minutes or until the shallots are golden brown and tender.
Increase the heat to medium-high.
Add the green beans.
Saute 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
