1
Prepare the Green Beans
Wash the green beans thoroughly under cold water. Trim the ends off each bean.
2
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.
3
Cook the Green Beans
Add the green beans to the skillet. Toss to coat them in the garlic oil. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender but still crisp.
4
Finish with Lemon
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the cooked green beans. Toss gently to combine.
5
Serve
Transfer the green beans to a serving dish and enjoy!
