Rinse the green beans under cold water and trim the ends off.

In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the trimmed green beans and cook for 4-5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the cooked green beans, salt, and black pepper. Toss to combine and heat through for another 2-3 minutes.
