Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh green beans
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Trim the ends of the green beans and rinse them under cold water. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the green beans, olive oil, minced garlic, kosher salt, ground black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Toss until the green beans are evenly coated.
Spread the green beans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not crowded to ensure even roasting.
Roast the green beans in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and have a slight char.
Remove the green beans from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Sprinkle with lemon zest for a fresh, zesty finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your roasted garlic pepper green beans!
