Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh green beans
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the green beans thoroughly and trim the ends. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to ensure they roast properly.
In a large bowl, combine the green beans with olive oil, minced garlic, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Toss the beans until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the green beans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping. This allows them to roast evenly.
Roast the green beans in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time, until they are tender and have a slight char.
Once the green beans are done, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the roasted green beans with lemon zest for a refreshing burst of flavor. If desired, top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese for added richness.
Serve immediately while hot as a tasty and healthy side dish.
