Green Beans With Lime
- ½ pound green beans, trimmed
- 2 teaspoons to 1 tablespoon lime juice, or more to taste
- Sea salt to taste
Instructions:
If you’re entertaining with this dish, be sure to toss the beans in the lime juice and salt just before serving your guests.
- Place a steamer insert in a large pot and add enough water to reach just below the insert. Place the pot over high heat, cover it, and bring the water to a boil. Add the green beans and re-cover the pot, leaving the lid slightly ajar. Steam the beans for 3 to 5 minutes, or until they are crisp-tender. Drain them well.
- Transfer the beans to a medium glass or plastic mixing bowl. Toss the beans with the lime juice. Season with salt. Serve immediately.
