Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS:
  • 3 cups green beans
  • ¼ cup pine nuts (or sliced/chopped almonds or hazelnuts)
  • 1 tablespoon cold-pressed olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • ¼ lime
  • Sea salt
DIRECTIONS:
  1. Snip off the edges of the beans. Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add in the garlic and sautée for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and fragrant. Add in the green beans, stirring until they are all coated in the oil and cook for 3 more minutes, stirring occasionally. Add in the nuts and continue to cook for 5 final minutes, still stirring occasionally. If the pan gets too dry at any point add in a couple tablespoons of water, I needed to to this twice.
  2. Remove from heat and grate the zest of the lime directly over the beans then squeeze the juice over and sprinkle lightly with salt.
