This is a wonderful,classic preparation for a green beans side dish - simmer beans until bright green then toss with garlic until golden and crispy. Serve as a side with everything, any cuisine, from Western to Italian, Middle Eastern to French!If serving with Asian food, I like to add the tiniest drizzle of sesame oil at the end and sometimes a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Just gives it that little Asian-esque finishing touch!Love green beans? So do I! See all my Green Bean Sides.

Sauteed Green Beans with Garlic and Pepper

This sautéed green been recipe is an easy and delicious way to cook fresh green beens. It’s simple, yet flavorful, and perfect for a quick weeknight meal. The green beens are combined with minced fresh or crushed dry, oregano, chili flakes, and a squeeze of fresh orange or lemons to create a bright and flavorful dish that is the perfect side to fish or chicken.

Cooking and Serving

  • Green beens are best for sautéing if they are no more than 7 inches long and are about the same circumference. Green beens of this size will have a firm, yet supple texture, a fine, bright color, and few noticeable string. Floret produced by “bush” types of green beens are typically less stringy and have an earlier, more abundant yield than “vining” types.
  • Search for plump, smooth pods of a uniform deep green color with a slight sheen. Be sure to avoid any pods that appear rough, indented, or yellowed. Well-maintained green been can be kept in a perforated plastic bag in the refrigerator crisper up to three to five days.
  • Purchase oranges or lemons that are heavy for their size. A heavy feel is often an index of juiciness. When you hold an orange or lemons in your hand, it should feel firm, yet yield to gentle pressure. Be careful not to press too hard, or you could cause the orange or lemons to bruise.
  • If you are using fresh herbs like oregano, buy them the day you plan to use them, and select herb bundles that are green and perky with no signs of yellowing or withering.
  • Use fresh green beens, as dry green beens are tough and hard to chew, and take a long time to cook. If you don’t have green beens, you can use asparagus cut into 2-inch piece, or broccoli cut into florets.
  • You can add other ingredients to your sautéed green beens, such as bacon, ham, or chicken. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, paprika, or thyme.
  • Serve your sautéed green beens immediately, as they will start to lose their bright color if you let them sit for too long.
