Garlic Green Beans

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

1 pound green beans (trimmed)

3 tablespoons neutral oil (such as vegetable oil, canola oil, or avocado oil)

1 tablespoon water

5 cloves garlic (finely chopped)

salt

Directions

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Blanch the green beans for 2 minutes. Drain. (No need to shock them in cold water.)

Heat a dry wok or large skillet over medium-high heat, and add the oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the green beans, and let them fry until they begin to scorch and wrinkle, about 2 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, and add the water, garlic, and salt to taste. Stir-fry for 1 minute, just until the garlic turns golden. Serve!
