Ingredients

1 lb. fresh green beans

3 large shallots peeled, and cut into thin slivers

5 large cloves garlic, peeled and cut into thin slices

2 T olive oil

salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

1/4 cup sliced almonds

Directions

Preheat oven to 450F/230C. Trim ends from green beans. If using thin, long beans, cut in half crosswise into pieces about 2 inches long. Peel and slice shallots and garlic into lengthwise slivers. Put beans into a mixing bowl, add olive oil, salt, and pepper, and use a wooden spoon to toss until beans, shallots, and garlic are well coated with oil. Spray roasting pan with nonstick spray or mist with olive oil, then arrange the vegetables in a single layer. Roast 12-15 minutes for thin beans, or slightly longer for regular beans, until beans are slightly shriveled, and shallots and garlic are lightly browned. When beans are done, season with salt and fresh-ground black pepper and serve immediately.
