In a large skillet add 1 stick unsalted butter and melt over medium heat.
Add your silvered almonds and toast about 5 min.
Add your minced garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add your green beans and increase heat to medium high. Saute beans, flipping and tossing frequently until some are browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and cracked black pepper.
Place on a platter and serve.
