1/4 cup diced onion

03 -
1 tablespoon olive oil
04 -
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic

# Steps:
01 -
Allow green beans to sit at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes, or microwave them on a microwave-safe plate for 3 to 4 minutes until just defrosted but still cool and firm.
02 -
In a small skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter and olive oil together until the butter is fully liquefied.
03 -
Once the pan is thoroughly heated and the fat is shimmering, add all of the green beans to the skillet.
04 -
Sauté the green beans, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes to begin heating them through.
05 -
Incorporate the minced garlic and diced onion into the skillet; continue sautéing while stirring for another 3 to 4 minutes until the green beans are hot and the garlic and onions are golden brown and crisp but not burned.
06 -
Season the green beans with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve hot.
# Notes:
01 -
For best results, avoid over-defrosting green beans as excess moisture can affect texture during sautéing.
