Fill a 3- quart pot to the halfway mark with water; bring to a boil over high heat. Add the green beans and boil for about 4 minutes or just until the green beans are crisp-tender. Drain the beans and set aside keeping them warm.

Add olive oil to the 3- quart pot and place the pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for a few seconds, or just until the garlic begins to turn color and smells fragrant.
