Buttery Garlic Green Beans

We love fresh green beans!  I’m always looking for ways to mix them up a bit and this recipe fit the bill.

1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed and snapped in half

3 tablespoons butter or 1 – 3 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, pressed

2 pinches lemon pepper

salt

1  Place green beans in large skillet and cover with water, bring to a boil.  Reduce heat to medium low and simmer until beans start to soften, about 5 minutes.  Drain water.  Add butter or olive oil and cook and stir until butter is melted, about 2 – 3 minutes.

2  Add garlic and cook and stir until garlic is tender and fragrant, about 3 – 4 minutes.  Season with lemon pepper and salt.
