Total Time: 15 Minutes
Serves 4

• 3/4 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon lemon peel
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Bring a pot of water to boil and place green beans in them. Bring to a boil again, and then simmer for about 4 minutes or until beans are crisp-tender.

Transfer beans to a serving bow. Add the oil, peel, salt and pepper; toss to coat. Add more salt and pepper if desired, to taste.
