Parsleyed Green Beans Recipe.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 pounds green beans, washed and both ends trimmed
3 TBSPs unsalted butter
2 TSPs fresh garlic, finely chopped with pinch of salt
2 TBSPs chopped parsley
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Flat-leaf parsley (optional)

Recipe Instructions:

Fill large pot with water; bring to rolling boil.
Add 1 TBSP salt and the beans.
Cook, uncovered, for 5 to 8 minutes or until tender but still vibrant green and slightly resistant to the bite.
Drain beans; immediately submerge in bowl of lightly salted ice water to stop cooking and set color.
When thoroughly chilled, drain well.
Cover and chill up to 24 hours.
In a wide skillet heat butter over medium-high heat until hot and foaming.
Add beans.
Cook, tossing often, until heated through.
Sprinkle with garlic and parsley, a generous amount of salt, and a few grinds of black pepper.
Cook 1 minute longer, tossing frequently to distribute flavorings and avoid burning the garlic.
Sprinkle with additional parsley.
Serve immediately.
