Ingredients

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving 

4 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled 

2 large tomatoes, coarsely chopped (3 cups) 

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 

1 1/2 pounds Romano or green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces (7 cups) 

1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro, plus more leaves for serving 

Preparation

Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high. Add oil and garlic; cook until fragrant and sizzling, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook until they begin to break down, about 5 minutes.

Stir in beans and cilantro; bring to a simmer, then cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Season to taste and serve, drizzled with more oil and sprinkled with cilantro leaves.
