Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 pound green beans trimmed
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped parsley can also use basil, green onions or dill
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large pan over medium high heat.
- Add the green beans and cook for 4-5 minutes or until just tender.
- Stir in the garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Cook for 1-2 more minutes, stirring constantly.
- Sprinkle with parsley, then serve immediately.
Notes
- This recipe works with any fresh string beans, including traditional green beans, baby green beans (haricot vert), wax beans or romano beans. I used haricot vert green beans in these photos, which can be found in bags in the produce area of most grocery stores.
- Make sure to buy beans that are bright green. Avoid beans that look crushed or slimy.
- You can use whole green beans or cut them into 1 inch pieces. The smaller pieces cook quicker but aren't quite as elegant looking!
- Add the garlic towards the very end of the cooking time so that it doesn’t burn.
