1
Trim the Green Beans
Rinse the fresh green beans under cold water. Use a sharp knife to trim the ends of each bean, removing any tough or woody parts.
2
Prepare the Garlic
Peel the garlic cloves and finely mince them using a knife or 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. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
Add Garlic and Seasonings
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant. Season with salt and black pepper.
5
Finish with Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the sautéed green beans. Toss to coat evenly.
