Here is how you make Fast Italian Green Beans:

If using fresh green beans, snap and discard the ends, and break into 1-2 inch pieces. Heat the olive oil on medium heat in a skillet. Peel and press the garlic clove into the oil. Saute until the garlic just starts to sizzle. Add the Oregano and Basil. Stir to mix evenly.Add the green beans. Cook stirring occaisonally.
