1/4 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup kalamata olive, pitted and halved
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped
salt and pepper, to taste

  • Pour over green beans and feta and stir gently to combine.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh green beans. If you can't find fresh green beans, frozen green beans will also work.
  • Be sure to trim the green beans before cooking. This will remove any tough ends.
  • You can blanch the green beans before sautéing them. This will help to preserve their color and crunch.
  • To blanch the green beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Remove the green beans from the boiling water and immediately plunge them into a bowl of ice water. This will stop the cooking process.
  • Once the green beans are blanched, you can sauté them in a pan with olive oil and garlic. Cook the green beans until they are heated through and slightly browned.
  • Add the feta cheese and lemon juice to the green beans and stir to combine. Serve immediately.
