Step 1: Trim the stem ends from the green beans.
Step 2: Add the green beans to a large pot of salted, boiling water. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until tender, yet still crisp. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool.
Step 3: Return the pot to medium heat. Add the olive oil and garlic. Cook for 1 minute, until fragrant but not brown.
Step 4: Add the beans back to the pot and stir gently to combine. Add the butter to melt and salt and pepper to taste.
