Instructions
Blanch the green beans: Bring a large pot of salty water to a boil. Prepare a large bowl of ice water. Boil the beans for 2 minutes.
Plunge them into the ice water to stop the cooking and set the color.
Drain the beans and pat dry on a cloth or paper towel.
Heat the butter over medium-high heat in a large sauté pan. Cook the onions until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the green beans and sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring often.
Add all the herbs and some salt and pepper and toss to combine. Cook for 1 minute more.
Serve hot or at room temperature, with lemon wedges.
