👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Trim the ends of the fresh green beans and blanch them in boiling salted water for 3-5 minutes until crisp-tender.
2. Immediately transfer the blanched green beans to an ice bath to stop the cooking and preserve their vibrant green color, then drain well.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper to create the dressing.
4. In a large bowl, combine the drained green beans, thinly sliced red onion, and the prepared dressing.
5. Toss gently to ensure all ingredients are well coated with the dressing.
6. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
