- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.

- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add in a good amount of salt and the green beans, then boil for 8 minutes
- Plunge the green beans into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking and set the beautiful green color. Once cooled, drain and dry with paper towels. Then set aside.
- Heat a large skillet to medium low and add in the butter. Once melted, add in the garlic and sauté for about 20 seconds, making sure not to brown it or it will become bitter.
