Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Begin heating the EVOO and Thai chilis in a large, 12" skillet set to about medium. Once heated, let those chilis sizzle away for about a minute before adding the green beans to the skillet. Season liberally with salt and a good pinch of two of pepper, toss, and let the beans cook about 10 minutes. During that ten minutes, flip / toss them every couple minutes, allowing them to get some good colour before being flipped.
After the 10 minutes, reduce your heat slightly and add the water. Cover the skillet for about 3 minutes. Once uncovered, toss your beans again and hit them with some more salt & pep. Now, let the beans continue to cook until the water has almost entirely reduced and beans are tender crisp.
Add the garlic & butter to the skillet and start tossing the beans over the heat until the butter is melty and garlic is dispersed nicely. After only a minute, you can turn off the heat. Squeeze in the lemon juice and toss the beans with the grana padano and lemon zest.
Before serving, taste one and season the beans liberally at this point to taste. Get them on to a serving dish with additional lemon wedges and that's that! ENJOY!

Notes

My garlic cloves were tiny which is why I used 5. If you have big ones, use as much or as little as you'd like. Just make sure there's enough for it to matter lol
