Recipe - Roasted Green Beans With Garlic

1 pound Green Beans; Tender Tips
Left On
1 One half teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil; Note
1
3 Cloves Garlic; Mashed
3 Sprigs Thyme; Note 2
Salt And Pepper; To Taste
Anchovy Fillets; Mashed,
Note 3
3 teaspoon Fresh Lemon Juice
Finely Grated Zest Of 1
Lemon

Note 1: Original recipe used 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Note 2: I didn't have any fresh thyme sprigs so I used 1 tsp dried thyme

Note 3: I didn't have any anchovies so I didn't use them..but the original
recipe used 3 anchovy fillets

Preheat the oven to 450F. In a large baking dish, toss the green beans with
the olive oil, garlic and thyme and season with salt and pepper. Spread the
green beans in a single layer and roast, tossing occasionally, until tender
and lightly browned, about 15 min.

Discard the thyme sprigs and transfer the green beans to a bowl. Add the
anchovies (I omitted these), lemon juice and lemon zest and toss well to
coat. Serve warm or at room temp.

This was very quick and easy to prepare. The flavor was very good even
without the anchovies!!
