Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.

Add the minced garlic and sauté until it begins to brown slightly. This is to flavor the oil.

Add the French green beans to the pan and toss to coat them in the garlic-infused oil. Reduce heat to medium.

Cook the beans, tossing regularly for 10 minutes to achieve an even cook and maintain their vibrant color.

Season the beans with the fine sea salt, and toss to evenly distribute.

Just before turning off the heat, add the lemon zest to the pan and give a final toss. The zest brightens up the dish and provides a refreshing counterpoint to the garlic.

Serve hot, and enjoy this symphony of flavors!
