In my experience with pasta like this, I cook a little longer than the directions to break down all the fiber so it is easier to digest.
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh green beans cleaned and stems removed
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice about 1/2 lemon
- 1 tbsp water
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- ¼-½ tsp fresh ground black pepper
Instructions
-
Heat two teaspoons olive oil in large skillet. Add green beans and cook for 8 minutes on medium-high heat, stirring frequently. Beans will start to char slightly.
-
Add 2 Tbsp. lemon juice and 1 Tbsp. water to the beans, cover, and turn heat to low. Cook 2 more minutes. Remove lid and continue to simmer until water has evaporated.
-
Add salt, pepper, and another drizzle of fresh lemon juice. Serve immediately.
