1 pinch salt
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely diced
1 shallot, chopped
½ teaspoon garlic salt

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and shallot in hot oil until tender and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add green beans and season with garlic salt, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir for 5 to 7 minutes more. Serve immediately.
