1
Trim the Green Beans
Rinse the fresh green beans under cold water. Trim the ends of the green beans by cutting off about 1 inch from each end.
2
Prepare the Garlic
Peel the garlic cloves and finely mince them using a knife or a garlic press.

3
Sauté the Green Beans
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the trimmed green beans and sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
Add Garlic and Seasonings
Add the minced garlic to the skillet along with the salt and black pepper. Sauté for an additional 3-4 minutes until the green beans are tender and the garlic is fragrant.
5
Finish with Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the sautéed green beans. Toss to combine and serve immediately.
