Total: 25 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

1 lb green beans, trimmed
2 tbsp olive oil
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes (if using) and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the green beans to the skillet and toss to coat in the garlic oil. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the beans are tender and slightly blistered.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.
