Dottie's Green Beans with Garlic  

 

A couple of hours before cooking you can get the beans and garlic ready in the 
pot.  When you steam the garlic along with the beans it makes for a very

mild but rich garlic flavor.  

 

Serves 4 to 6  

 

Recipe Ingredients:  

 

1 lb green or yellow wax beans 

6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced ½ tsp salt 

1 tbsp butter or extra-virgin olive oil  

Directions:  

 

Trim beans. Place in steaming basket set over pot of water (or place in 
saucepan filled 1 inch/2.5 cm deep with water); cover with garlic and sprinkle 
with

salt. Steam on high heat until beans are tender-crisp, about 7 minutes. Drain 
and toss with butter.
