Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Green Beans

Trim the ends of the green beans and rinse them under cold water.

2

Blanch the Green Beans

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

3

Sauté with Garlic

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

4

Combine and Season

Add the blanched green beans to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes, until heated through.

5

Finish with Lemon and Almonds

Remove from heat, drizzle with lemon juice, and sprinkle with sliced almonds if using. Toss to combine and serve warm.
