Saute in sesame oil w/ garlic, a dash or two of soy 
Or you can cook up a piece or two of bacon in a pot then top w/ some green beans and cook in a crock pot all day.

parboil some fresh green beans, dump into ice water when they are a little crisper than you want them. gather in bundles and tie with a thick strip of (raw)bacon. place bundles on a cookie sheet. In a pan saute some butter and fresh garlic..pour over bundles and stick under the broiler until the bacon is cooked..yummmm

I fix them the way my grandmother used to, boil them with salt, pepper and bacon fat and new potatoes. After they've finished cooking I add butter. Not healthy but sooooo goood.

It is tasty, easily customizeable, and it is very pretty on the table. Looks fancy without being a PITA. There are all kinds of glazes and sauces you can use..but frankly butter or olive oil and garlic is the best.

Or boil with a Smoked Turkey Neck, or Drummie!! No need to add salt.
Sounds pretty and good.....green beans and bacon are a great combo. Actually, all these recipes sound good and they're all easy. Thanks everyone!

I dump a can into my small slow cooker and add some ham scraps. The longer they slow cook, the better.
Fresh: I like roasting them (on 425 for about 15 minutes) with olive oil, salt and pepper and maybe a couple cloves of smashed garlic to add a little extra flavor.
Another great way is to cook several chopped and seasoned (salt and pepper) leeks on medium-high in olive oil for about 10 minutes, add 1/3 cup fresh chopped dill and about a pound of fresh trimmed green beans and cook until the beans lose their raw bite. Mmm soo good!
Canned: I render the fat out of a couple pieces of bacon in a hot pan then add my green beans and water and cook on low until I"m ready to eat them.
