Ingredients:
Directions:
1
Snap off the stem ends of the green beans, or cut them off in a big bunch with a knife
2
Heat a pan over a medium heat and add the butter
3
(It helps to use a pan with a light-colored bottom so you can keep track of the color
4
) Swirl the pan occasionally to be sure the butter is cooking evenly
5
As the butter melts, it will begin to foam
6
The color will progress from lemony-yellow to golden-tan to, finally, a toasty-brown
7
Once you smell that nutty aroma, add the green beans and saute for 3 to 4 minutes
8
Add some lemon juice and salt and pepper, then transfer to a platter in batches with tongs
