Making Cheesy Garlic Green Beans is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Blanch the Green Beans: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the green beans for 3-5 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender. Drain and immediately plunge them into an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
2. Sauté the Garlic: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
3. Add Green Beans: Once the garlic is aromatic, add the blanched green beans to the skillet. Toss the beans in the garlic butter for about 3-4 minutes until they are coated and heated through.
4. Season: Sprinkle salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes over the green beans to enhance their flavors, stirring well.
5. Incorporate Cheese: Reduce the heat to low and sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan over the green beans. Stir gently to combine, allowing the cheese to melt slightly but remaining gooey.
6. Serve: Once the cheese is melted, remove from heat. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
7. Taste Test: Before serving, taste the green beans and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Following these easy steps will yield a wonderful dish of Cheesy Garlic Green Beans that brings smiles to everyone’s faces!
