A good but basic recipe for cooking green beans. More what I'd expect to find in a reference cookbook. Reliable, "can't go wrong" recipe, more about method than style or flair.

Very yummy! I decided to add a bit of shallot along with the garlic, and I salted/peppered while they were cooking. Excellent overall

So good! Doubled the garlic and reduced the olive oil to what i needed for the garlic to saute. Thanks for the recipe!

These are absolutely amazing. I can't get over how good they are! I have had them at least three times now, and everyone loves them as well.

Yum yum! I like to add a little more lemon juice and pepper for stronger flavor. Also, I always blanch beans before sauteing them with other ingredients. Without the blanching they don't get done enough for my taste. This is a keeper!

This is now my husband's favorite green been recipe. That's something from a Kentucky boy who grew up with green beans that are cooked all day with salt pork.

I used this recipe to marinade my green beans before grilling in a grill basket. Great flavor.

Very good. If you guys like the flavor of this recipe you should try "lemon garlic mushrooms" also on this site; what is it about lemon and garlic that goes so well with cooked vegetables?

the first time I made this, I too thought it was kind of bland, the second time, I actually cut the green beans into pieces as recommended, and it seemed to be much more flavorful! I am changing my four stars to five after following the recipe and cutting the beans
