Olive Garden Restaurant Green Beans With Tomato and Garlic

SERVES 3 -4
1 lb fresh green beans, cleaned
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup tomato, deseeded and diced
salt, as needed
ground black pepper, as needed

After you have washed the green beans, remove the ends.
Blanche the green beans in salted boiling water for one minute.
Drain and run cold water over them to stop the cooking process.
In a large nonstick frying pan heat the oil over medium heat.
Add the garlic and cook for one minute.
Add the green beans and cook for another minute.
Add the tomato pieces and cook until the green beans are tender but still green.
(Sometimes I'll add 1/4 cup water and cover the pan for a bit if the green beans are having trouble getting tender.).
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Serve at once.
