Green Beans with Parsley and Garlic image

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound green beans
salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1 Snap off the stem ends of the green beans. Bring about 2 quarts of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the beans and salt to taste. Cook uncovered until the beans are crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. 2 Drain the beans and pat them dry. (If you are not using them immediately, cool them under cold running water. Wrap the beans in a kitchen towel and leave at room temperature up to 3 hours.) 3 Just before serving, heat the oil with the garlic and parsley in a large pan over medium heat. Add the beans and a sprinkle of pepper. Toss gently 2 minutes until just hot. Serve hot. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.

This is a great recipe to serve as a side dish or as a main course. I often add a protein, like grilled chicken or shrimp, to make it a complete meal.

I love this recipe! The green beans are always perfectly cooked and the parsley and garlic add a ton of flavor. I often add a little bit of lemon zest to brighten up the dish.
