Tips:
- Tip 1: Use Fresh Green Beans
For the best flavor and texture, use fresh green beans. Look for beans that are bright green, firm, and free of blemishes.
- Tip 2: Trim the Ends
Make sure to trim both ends of the green beans before cooking. This helps them cook evenly and improves their overall presentation.
- Tip 3: Don't Overcook
Be careful not to overcook your green beans. Steaming them for about 5-7 minutes will keep them tender-crisp and preserve their bright green color.
- Tip 4: Season to Taste
Feel free to add additional seasonings such as salt, pepper, or a squeeze of lemon juice to enhance the flavor of the dish.
Garlic Butter Steamed Green Beans are a simple yet flavorful side dish that can be made in just a few minutes. With minimal ingredients and a straightforward cooking process, this dish is an excellent way to elevate your meal with a touch of elegance.
