    15 minutes

Prep your green beans quickly; stack a handful of them together on a cutting board and trim the stem ends off the whole stack at once.

Ingredients

Serves 8

1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 pounds thin green beans (haricot verts), stem ends trimmed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon za'atar
Grated zest of 1 lemon
Kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper

  1. Step 1

    In large skillet over medium-high heat, bring the broth to a simmer. Add the green beans, cover pan, and cook, tossing occasionally, until crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Uncover pan and add butter; toss to coat.

    Step 2

    Remove pan from heat and stir in the za'atar, lemon zest, salt and pepper to taste before serving.

  • Served for Thanksgiving this year and it went pretty much untouched. Nothing great. 1 Fork for ease of preparation.

  • Good solid recipe for green beans. Will definitely again. Za'atar is a wonderful spice mixture that's worth seeking out. Served this would Persian Spiced Chicken with Spaghetti Squash, Pomegranate and Pistachios (B.A. recipe).

  • If you have the Za'atar then this is a wonderful and refreshing way to serve green beans. A friend of mine gave me some za'atar a while back for a dipping sauce and I had a bunch left over so when I saw this recipe I thought 'Absolutely'! And I wasn't disappointed.

  • Excellent, easy green bean recipe. Made per recipe, however made about 10 minutes before serving and let it sit. It would be good at room temperature, or could easily be reheated, so it's a great do ahead recipe.
