Tips:

  • Choose fresh green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and crisp. Avoid beans that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Trim the green beans: Remove the ends of the beans where the stems were attached. You can also string the beans if desired, but this is not necessary.
  • Cook the green beans properly: The key to tender-crisp green beans is to cook them quickly. Blanching the beans in boiling water for a few minutes is the best way to achieve this. You can also steam or sauté the beans, but be careful not to overcook them.
  • Make sure the garlic butter is hot: When you add the garlic butter to the green beans, make sure it is hot so that it melts and coats the beans evenly.
  • Season to taste: Add salt and pepper to the green beans to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, if desired.
  • Serve the green beans immediately: Green beans are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will help them retain their color and crispness.
