Instructions: Note 1: Original recipe used 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil Note 2: I didnt have any fresh thyme sprigs so I used 1 tsp dried thyme Note 3: I didnt have any anchovies so I didnt use them..but the original recipe used 3 anchovy fillets

Preheat the oven to 450F. In a large baking dish, toss the green beans with the olive oil, garlic and thyme and season with salt and pepper.

Spread the green beans in a single layer and roast, tossing occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 15 min.

Discard the thyme sprigs and transfer the green beans to a bowl. Add the anchovies (I omitted these), lemon juice and lemon zest and toss well to coat. Serve warm or at room temp.

This was very quick and easy to prepare. The flavor was very good even without the anchovies!!
