Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Green Beans

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

2. Blanch the Beans

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.

3. Sauté the Garlic

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

4. Combine and Season

Add the blanched green beans to the skillet. Toss to coat in the butter and garlic. Season with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

5. Serve

Remove from heat and transfer the buttered green beans to a serving dish. Enjoy immediately.
