 Garlicky Green Beans

1 lb. fresh green beans

Add the olive oil and butter to a large frying pan and heat until the butter is melted.  Add the chopped garlic and cook for 2 minutes over medium heat.  Add the green beans and stir to get them as flat as possible in the pan.  Cook until they turn bright green.  Add the chicken broth, salt and pepper and stir.  Raise the heat until the liquid boils and then cook until the green beans are done.  Stir as needed.  Serve warm.
