This was delicious! I only had 3/4 lb. of green beans, but kept everything else the same. I thought that the garlic might be overpowering, but it was great! I would suggest sprinkling the salt & pepper over the green beans after they have been added to the pan then re-tossing because it helps to disperse the spices more evenly (found that out a little too late, lol!)
