Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, grated
  • ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 12 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, garlic, mustard, salt, and several grinds of pepper. Stir in the thyme leaves.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the green beans and toss to coat.
