Steps:
- Blanch green beans in a large pot of salted water until tender, 5 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large plate or rimmed baking sheet to cool.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add garlic and cook until softened and just beginning to color, 1 to 2 minutes. Add green beans and season generously with salt and pepper. When green beans are hot, toss in lemon slices and cook 1 minute over high. Check seasoning -- beans should be well-seasoned and bright but not too sour. Serve hot, or preferably at room temperature.
SKILLET-CHARRED GREEN BEANS
These green beans with bagna cauda flavors make a wonderful accompaniment to any meat, fish or chicken dish. The beans are simple to cook and fairly effortless, so do resist the urge to stir too often. Allow them to sit, caramelize and shrivel to bring out all of their natural sweetness. Anchovies are tossed in at the end for a bright, salty hit that complements the sweet beans and shallots. These beans can be made ahead, and are equally delicious warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Add shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer mixture to a small bowl.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Add green beans, season with salt and pepper and toss to evenly coat in the oil. Leave undisturbed over medium heat for 2 minutes to encourage charring, then stir and cook, tossing every 2 minutes, until most of the beans are shriveled, about 6 minutes longer.
- Reduce heat to low and add the shallot mixture and anchovies. Cook, stirring, until well incorporated and anchovies dissolve, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer to a serving platter and serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
- Char the green beans properly: To get the best flavor and texture, char the green beans until they are slightly blistered and tender-crisp. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the beans will steam instead of char.
- Use high-quality ricotta cheese: For the best results, use fresh, whole-milk ricotta cheese. Avoid low-fat or part-skim ricotta, as it will be too dry and crumbly.
- Season the ricotta cheese to taste: Before mixing the ricotta cheese with the green beans, season it with salt, pepper, and lemon zest. This will help to brighten the flavor of the dish.
- Serve the dish immediately: Charred green beans with ricotta and lemon is best served immediately, while the beans are still warm and crispy. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Charred green beans with ricotta and lemon is a simple but flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The charred green beans are tender-crisp and slightly smoky, while the ricotta cheese is creamy and tangy. The lemon zest adds a bright, citrusy note that ties all the flavors together. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
