Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh green beans
- 250 grams cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 medium red onion
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Trim the ends of the green beans and rinse them thoroughly. Set aside.
Step 2
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half. Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Slice the red onion into thin strips.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Step 4
Once the oil is hot, add the sliced red onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion is softened and the garlic is fragrant.

Step 6
Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the tomatoes to soften and release their juices.

Remove from heat and sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley before serving.
