Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans. Look for beans that are bright green and have no blemishes. Avoid beans that are limp or have yellowed tips.
  • Trim the green beans before cooking. Snap off the ends of the beans and remove any strings. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Blanch the green beans before sautéing them. This will help them retain their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Drain the beans and rinse them with cold water.
  • Use a large skillet to sauté the green beans. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from overcrowding.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you add too many beans to the skillet, they will not cook evenly. Cook the beans in batches if necessary.
  • Sauté the green beans over medium-high heat. This will help them brown and caramelize.
  • Season the green beans with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other seasonings, such as chili powder, cumin, or smoked paprika.
  • Cook the green beans until they are tender-crisp. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Garnish the green beans with Parmesan cheese and parsley before serving.
