Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
- 3 cloves fresh garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and trim the green beans by snipping off the tough ends. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the green beans, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. If you'd like a bit of heat, add the optional red pepper flakes.
Spread the green beans out evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are in a single layer to ensure even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the green beans for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized on the edges.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the roasted green beans to a serving dish.
Serve immediately as a side dish to complement your favorite meals. Enjoy!
