Preparation Details

Prep Time: 10 mins

Cook Time: 15 mins

Total Time: 25 mins

Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh green beans
  • 1 ½ ounces slivered almonds
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps

  1. Gather the ingredients.
  2. Place beans into a microwave-safe casserole dish with enough water to cover the bottom. Microwave on high power until almost tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain in a colander and refresh under cold running water to keep them bright green in color.
  3. Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add almonds and cook until just starting to turn golden, about 3 to 5 minutes, watching closely so as to not burn.
  4. Take pan off of heat and add butter to melt. Return to heat and add garlic. Mix in green beans, season with salt and pepper, and continue to stir until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.
