Instructions
Blanch the Green Beans
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the trimmed green beans and blanch for 3 minutes until bright green and just slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
Saute the Garlic
In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it brown.
Toss and Finish
Add the blanched green beans to the skillet and toss to coat them in the garlic butter. Season with salt and cook for an additional 3 minutes until the beans are heated through and lightly glossed. Serve hot.
