Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound green beans trimmed
  • 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice optional
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley optional

Instructions
 

Prepare the Green Beans:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Add the green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
  • Drain and immediately plunge into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.

Cook the Mushrooms:

  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-6 minutes until they release their moisture and begin to brown.

Add Garlic and Green Beans:

  • Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add the drained green beans to the skillet and toss to combine with the mushrooms and garlic.

Season and Finish:

  • Reduce the heat to medium and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the vegetables.
  • Toss to coat evenly, allowing the cheese to melt slightly.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • If using, drizzle with lemon juice and sprinkle with chopped parsley for added flavor and color.

Serve:

  • Transfer the stir fry to a serving dish and enjoy immediately.
