Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans. Look for beans that are bright green in color and have no blemishes. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Trim the green beans before cooking. Cut off the ends of the beans and any tough strings that run along the sides.
  • Blanch the green beans before sautéing. This will help to preserve their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green. Drain the beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Sauté the green beans in olive oil over medium heat. Add the beans to a large skillet with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until the beans are tender and slightly browned.
  • Add lemon juice, zest, and pine nuts to the green beans. Stir to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes more, or until the pine nuts are toasted.
  • Season the green beans with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the green beans immediately. They can be enjoyed as a side dish or as a main course with a side of rice or quinoa.

Conclusion:

Green beans with lemon and pine nuts is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The bright flavors of lemon and pine nuts complement the fresh, crisp green beans perfectly. This dish is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin K, and fiber.
