Ingredients

  • 400 grams frozen corn or green beans
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the olive oil and butter to the skillet, allowing the butter to melt completely.

Step 3

Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Step 4

Add the frozen corn or green beans directly to the skillet. Stir well to coat them in the butter and garlic mixture.

Step 5

Season the vegetables with salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes (if using). Stir to combine.

Step 6

Cook the vegetables for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and any excess moisture has evaporated.

Step 7

Turn off the heat and stir in the lemon juice for a bright pop of flavor.

Step 8

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately while hot.
