- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh sage
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 2 pounds green beans, trimmed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup hazelnuts, chopped
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Heat butter and oil, then cook sage until it begins to blacken, 1 to 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook until golden, about 2 minutes. Add beans and salt; toss to coat. Carefully add 1 cup water. Steam until beans are fork-tender and most of the water has evaporated, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle hazelnuts on top and serve.
