Green Beans Amandine

Directions

1. 1.

   Cook green beans in a large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, 5–7 minutes. Drain, then immediately transfer to a large bowl filled with ice water. Drain again and pat dry.

2. 2.

   Melt butter in a large, deep-sided skillet over medium heat. Add almonds and 1 tsp. salt and stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Add green beans and lemon juice and stir to coat; cook just until warmed through.

3. 3.

   Transfer green beans to a platter. Pour butter sauce and almonds over and serve.
