Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until crisp-tender, about 4–5 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add butter, allowing it to melt and brown slightly. Add almonds and toast, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant, about 2–3 minutes.
Add shallot and cook until tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and lemon zest, cooking until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Return green beans to the skillet, add lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss well and heat through for 1–2 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
