Green Beans with Anchovy Butter

This is a simple yet flavorful side dish where the green beans are cooked until tender and then tossed in a delicious anchovy butter.

Ingredients - Serves 4

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the anchovies and garlic and cook until the anchovies have dissolved into the butter, about 2 minutes.
Add the cooked green beans to the skillet and toss to coat in the anchovy butter. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the beans are heated through.
Remove from heat and stir in the lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the green beans warm, with the anchovy butter drizzled over the top.
