Ingredients

    1 lb green beans or haricot verts ends trimmed
    2 tsp olive oil
    1 tsp minced garlic
    ½ cup chopped green onions
    ¼ tsp dried oregano
    ¼ tsp dried thyme
    ¼ tsp dried tarragon
    ¼ tsp dried marjoram
    ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper

    Suggestion: I substitute 1 tsp of Herbes de Provence for the herbs listed above. I use 2 tsp because I like lots of herbs.

Directions

In a covered saucepan, steam beans until tender, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Drain and plunge into cold water to stop cooking. Drain well.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat.
Add garlic and green onions and sauté for 2 minutes.
Stir in beans, herbs and pepper. Sauté and stir until all are heated throughout.
Transfer to a serving dish or casserole dish. May be served hot or at room temp.
