Garlic Green Beans

I love garlic green beans.  They go with everything.  Even breakfast.  They are always better with fresh beans, but frozen are ok.  The best are those lovely, narrow french beans.  

Ingredients:

1 pound green beans, washed and end removed

1 tbs olive oil

2 tbs butter

3-4 cloves of garlic, minced

salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

Steam the green beans until not quite fully cooked. Heat the butter and oil until frothy.  Add the garlic and stir for about a minute.  Add the mostly cooked beans and cook for another minute or so (depending on how done you like them.  Josh and I disagree on the definition of done with these).  Add salt and pepper and serve right away.
