Salt & pepper to taste (watch the salt if you use bacon fat)
1 teaspoon lemon zest

Heat the olive oil/fat and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add green beans, lemon juice and garlic salt. Cook until the beans are tender but still a bit crunchy, approximately 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Salt & pepper to taste. Add lemon zest over top.
