Ruth’s Chris Garlic Herb Green Beans

Ruth’s Chris Garlic Herb Green Beans are a classic steakhouse side that proves simple ingredients can deliver elegant results. Crisp-tender green beans are finished in sizzling garlic butter and herbs, creating a dish that’s fresh, vibrant, and perfectly balanced.

The secret to achieving that signature steakhouse texture is blanching the green beans first. This quick boil locks in their bright color and snap, while the final sauté in butter and olive oil adds richness without weighing them down.

Garlic and herbs provide just enough flavor to enhance the natural sweetness of the green beans. A light squeeze of lemon at the end adds brightness and keeps the dish tasting clean and refined.
