Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Green Beans

Trim the ends of the green beans and rinse them under cold water. Set aside.

2

Toast the Almonds

In a dry skillet over medium heat, add the sliced almonds. Toast them for about 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are golden and fragrant. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3

Brown the Butter

In the same skillet, add the unsalted butter. Let it melt over medium heat. Continue to cook the butter, stirring occasionally, until it turns golden brown and develops a nutty aroma, about 5-7 minutes.

4

Cook the Green Beans

Add the prepared green beans to the skillet with the browned butter. Season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the green beans are tender-crisp.

5

Combine and Serve

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the toasted almonds. Serve immediately as a side dish.
