2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves, minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

Step 1: Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 pound trimmed green beans and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly tender.
Step 2: Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
