Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups loosely packed fresh basil leaves
6 garlic cloves, minced (1 1/2 tbsp)
1/4 cup plus 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1 medium red onion , halved lengthwise, then thinly sliced crosswise
1 1/2 lb haricots verts or other thin green beans, trimmed

Directions:

Make pistou: Purée all pistou ingredients in a food processor until basil is finely chopped.
Make salad: Soak onion in cold water 15 minutes, then drain in a colander and pat dry.
While onion soaks, cook beans in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 3 to 6 minutes, then drain in a large colander. Transfer to a large bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking, then drain again and pat dry.
Toss beans and onion with pistou. Season with salt and pepper.
Cooks' notes: Pistou can be made 6 hours ahead and transferred to a small bowl, then chilled, covered. Beans can be cooked 1 day ahead and chilled in a sealed large plastic bag lined with paper towels.
