This dish is ultimately a terrible idea: it adds fat and removes flavor compared to simply microwaved hericot vert.  The sour cream / lemon dressing masks the nice nuttiness of hericot vert, but doesn't add enough flavor to compensate.  The Parmesan (presumably to add salt) seems simply unrelated to the rest of the dish.  My verdict: innocuous, but definitely not worth even the modest effort involved.  You're better off just serving the hericot vert plain.
