Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange nuts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast in the preheated oven until lightly browned, approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
Place green beans in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water and cover. Steam for 8 to 10 minutes, or until tender, but still bright green.
Place cooked beans in a large bowl and toss with butter, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer beans to a serving dish and sprinkle with toasted walnuts. Serve immediately.

Notes
I used frozen, french-cut green beans.
Also, a few too many walnuts, I would reduce to 1/3 cup. Could also use almonds, if desired.
