These Garlic Butter Green Beans are a quick, easy, and elegant side dish for any holiday meal. Fresh green beans are blanched to a perfect crisp-tender texture and then sautéed in a delicious garlic butter sauce. Toasted almonds add a wonderful nutty crunch. It’s a simple yet flavorful vegetable side that complements any Christmas main course, from roast turkey to glazed ham.
While green beans have been cultivated for thousands of years, the simple preparation of green beans with garlic and butter is a relatively modern American classic. It rose in popularity as a simple, elegant, and quick alternative to more complex vegetable dishes like the green bean casserole, especially for holiday meals where oven space is at a premium. Its simplicity allows the fresh flavor of the green beans to shine.
