Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh green beans trimmed (I like the French ones – the haricot vert)
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds not slivered
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Get prepped
- Trim the green beans. Mince the garlic. Measure out the butter, almonds, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Blanch the green beans
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes, until bright green and slightly tender. Drain and immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.
Toast the almonds
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced almonds and cook, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove the almonds from the skillet and set them aside.
Cook the green beans
- In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the blanched green beans, lemon juice, salt, and pepper and half the almonds. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through.
Combine and serve
- Transfer the green beans from the skillet to a serving platter. Top with reserved toasted almonds.
- Devour.

Notes
- • For an extra burst of flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes when cooking the garlic. • If you prefer, use a diced shallot in place of the garlic.
