Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Green Beans

    Wash the fresh green beans under cold water. Trim the ends of the beans and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  3. 3

    Cook the Green Beans

    Add the trimmed green beans to the skillet. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Sauté the beans for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender but still crisp.

  4. 4

    Finish with Lemon Juice

    Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the green beans. Toss to combine and serve immediately.
