Garlicky Green Beans
Do you need a quick, go-to side dish for any night of the week? This is the one! It's probably my favorite veggie in our week night rotation. I would recommend making the trek to Costco to pick up their frozen organic green beans. I believe they are around 7 dollars, packaged in perfect portion sizes for 4 people, and are ultra convenient. You can make this dish with fresh green beans but par-boil them first. To do this, boil the green beans in water until just before they are al dente (cook through but still crisp). Then place them in a ice water bath to halt the cooking process and drain. Now proceed with the recipe.
Ingredients:
1 pack of Costco frozen green beans
2 cloves of garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons of olive oil
salt and pepper
Heat the oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and green beans. Saute for 5 to 10 minutes, tossing frequently until the green beans are cooked through but still have a crisp to them (al dente). Sprinkle them with salt and pepper and enjoy!
