Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the String Beans

    Wash and trim the ends of the string beans. Blanch them in boiling salted water for about 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and immediately plunge them into ice water to stop the cooking.

  2. 2

    Toast the Almonds

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced almonds and toast them until golden brown, stirring frequently to prevent burning, about 3-5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the almonds and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Then, add the blanched string beans to the skillet, along with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together to coat the beans evenly.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the beans are heated through. Serve immediately as a side dish.
