<p>These zesty steamed green beans are the epitome of an easy side dish! This healthy recipe is the perfect side to go with salmon.</p>

Place 1 1/2 cups water into a saucepan or pot and bring it to a boil.

Once boiling, add the green beans in the steamer basket. Steam with the lid on 4 to 5 minutes until just tender (test with a fork).

Carefully remove the beans to a bowl. Toss with the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, kosher salt, and plenty of fresh ground black pepper.
