Ingredients

  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 4 cups green beans
  • 1/4 cup, slivered almond
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 dash salt
  • 1 dash pepper

Directions

  • Heat olive oil over medium heat in a sauté pan, cook almonds in oil until they start to brown. Add garlic to pan for one minute more to cook garlic (it can burn easily, so watch it).
  • The tricky part - remove the almonds and garlic from the pan leaving the oil behind (I have no good way to do this yet, leave a comment if you think of one).
  • Cook washed and snapped green beans in the oil with salt and pepper (optional) until beans are to the tenderness of your liking (about 5-10 minutes).
  • Remove beans from heat, add back the almond/garlic mixture.
  • Enjoy! They're good as leftovers, if you can control yourself from eating the entire batch!
