    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add green beans and cook uncovered until tender, about 2 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Drain.
    Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add chopped garlic; fry, stirring often, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
