Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the green beans

Wash the fresh green beans under cold water and trim the ends.

2

Blanch the green beans

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and blanch for 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and immediately plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.

3

Sauté the garlic

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4

Combine and season

Add the blanched green beans to the skillet with garlic. Sauté for an additional 3-4 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice, then stir to combine.

5

Serve

Transfer the green beans to a serving dish and serve warm.
