This is my go to recipe for the BEST Garlic Green Beans! Ready in minutes and loaded with tons of garlic flavor! These sautéed green beans come out perfectly tender and crisp. Perfect any time: weeknight or holidays!
Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add in green beans and cook over high heat until the green beans start to get some color on them 2-3 minutes.Add in garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Pour in water, cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 2-3 minutes or until the green beans are tender and the water is absorbed. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
