Ingredients
- 2 (12 ounce) bags fresh string beans ends trimmed
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Boil a salted pot of water for the beans and also prepare a large bowl of cold water with ice cubes. Trim the ends of the beans.
- Once the water is boiling, add 2 (12 ounce) bags fresh string beans and cook them for 2-3 minutes. Drain them and add them to the bowl of ice water so they stop cooking.
- Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter is sizzling, stir in 4 cloves minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds.
- Drain the beans and add them to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes, tossing/stirring often, or until the beans are as tender as you like.
- Season the beans with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Serves 4-6 depending on how much people eat.
- I use kitchen shears to quickly trim the beans.
- I prefer using sea salt in this recipe.
