Herb Green Beans With Feta
- 1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed
- Kosher salt
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 4 tablespoons torn fresh mint leaves, divided
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, divided
- 2 tablespoons matchstick-size strips lemon zest, divided
- 2 tablespoons (or more) fresh lemon juice
- 2 ounces feta, crumbled (about 1/2 cup)
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Working in two batches, cook beans in a large pot of boiling, generously salted water just until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Using tongs, transfer to a colander set in a bowl of ice water; let cool. Drain well, then pat dry with paper towels.
- Toss beans, oil, 2 tablespoons mint, 1 tablespoon dill, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and half of feta in a large bowl; season with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired. Serve beans topped with remaining feta, 2 tablespoons mint, 1 tablespoon dill, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
