Fagiolini al Burro

Trim the ends from the fresh green beans.

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Place the trimmed fresh green beans in a steamer basket over the boiling water. Steam the fresh green beans for 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.

While the fresh green beans are steaming, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
