Ingredients
- 12 ounces microwavable bag snipped green beans
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 1 Tablespoons lemon zest
- 1 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup pine nuts
- 1/4 cup fresh parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Pierce the bag of green beans and cook for 3 minutes on high. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat over medium and add the pinenuts to the dry skillet. Stir and toast the pinenuts until they are golden brown. Be careful as they can burn quickly.
- Remove the pinenuts immediately from the pan and place in a bowl as they will continue to cook and possibly burn. Set aside.
- Add the olive oil to the same skillet over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and stir to cook until the garlic is fragrant, but not brown. Be careful as the garlic may spit and splatter in the hot grease.
- Add the green beans to the pan and stir fry over medium heat for approximately 2-3 minutes, tossing and stirring to coat the beans in the garlicy oil until the beans begin to brown on most sides.
- Remove the skillet from heat and add the lemon juice, lemon zest, parmesan cheese, and toasted Pinenuts. Toss to combine.
- Add a ½ teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of black pepper and toss again.
- Taste a bean and add more salt and/or pepper until you reach your desired flavor.
- Enjoy!
