Herbed Beans

1 1/2 Pounds green beans
1 Small onion, halved and sliced
1/4 Cup butter
1 Teaspoon lemon juice
1 Teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped
1 Teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
1/4 Teaspoon paprika
Salt & Pepper to taste

Rinse beans in cold water, snap off ends and cut into 1-2" lengths. Cut half the onion into small slices and place, with beans, in a rice steamer. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside. Melt butter in a saucepan and add the other half of the onion, thinly sliced, the lemon juice, parsley, thyme, paprika, salt and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add the beans and toss well, completely coating beans. Serves 6-8.
