Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh green beans
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup water
Instructions
Wash and trim the ends off the green beans.
In a large skillet or sauté pan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil.
Add the green beans to the pan, cover, and steam them for 5-7 minutes or until they are tender but still slightly crisp. Drain any remaining water and set the beans aside.
In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Return the steamed green beans to the pan and toss to coat them in the garlic butter.
Stir in the fresh dill, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are evenly coated and heated through.
Transfer the green beans to a serving dish and garnish with a sprinkle of additional fresh dill, if desired. Serve immediately.
