Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Green Beans

Rinse the fresh green beans under cold water and trim the ends.

Heat the Olive Oil

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Sauté the Garlic

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Cook the Green Beans

Add the trimmed green beans to the skillet and toss to coat in the garlic oil. Season with salt and black pepper.

Sauté Until Tender

Cook the green beans for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender-crisp.

Finish with Lemon Juice

Remove from heat and drizzle with fresh lemon juice before serving.
