List of Ingredients



• 2 teaspoons salt (divided use)
  
• 2 pounds young green beans, stemmed
  
• 1/4 cup olive oil
  
• 1/4 cup sesame seeds, toasted
  
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  
• 2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
  
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  






Instructions

2. Drain beans in a large colander. Plunge beans in a bowl of ice water for 2 to 3 minutes to stop cooking and retain color. Drain thoroughly.
   
   
3. Combine oil, sesame seeds, lemon juice, garlic, black pepper, red-pepper flakes and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add green
   beans and toss gently to combine. Serve at room temperature.
