1. |
Heat olive oil over medium heat in a sauté pan, cook almonds in oil until they start to brown. Add garlic to pan for one minute more to cook garlic (it can burn easily, so watch it). |
2. |
The tricky part - remove the almonds and garlic from the pan leaving the oil behind (I have no good way to do this yet, leave a comment if you think of one). |
3. |
Cook washed and snapped green beans in the oil with salt and pepper (optional) until beans are to the tenderness of your liking (about 5-10 minutes). |
4. |
Remove beans from heat, add back the almond/garlic mixture. |

Enjoy! They're good as leftovers, if you can control yourself from eating the entire batch! |
