Preparation:
Pour olive oil in a large skillet and heat over medium flame. When oil is hot, add garlic and sautee for one minute. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Notes

For bacon-lovers this recipe is delicious with bite size bacon pieces. Cook the bacon first and sautee the green beans in the bacon fat (instead of olive oil), adding olive oil if needed. Then just at the end, toss in the crumbled bacon pieces to warm them before serving.
