Instructions
Blanching the Green Beans
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 1 tsp of the salt, then green beans, and cook 2 minutes, until crisp tender and bright green.
- While the green beans are cooking, fill a large bowl with plenty of ice and cold water. Drain the beans and immediately add to bowl with ice water to shock them and stop them from overcooking.
- Pat dry and set aside.
Sautéing the Green Beans
- Add olive oil and butter to a large skillet and heat over MED/MED HIGH heat.
- Add green beans, remaining 1/2 tsp salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Sauté, stirring often, for 3-5 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook another 30 seconds or so, until garlic is fragrant.
- Remove from the heat, add lemon zest and toss to combine.
- Serve immediately.
