Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Trim the green beans by snipping off the stem ends. Wash and thoroughly dry them with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the green beans with olive oil, minced garlic, crushed red pepper flakes, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned green beans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the green beans are tender with slightly crispy edges.
Remove the green beans from the oven and drizzle with lemon juice for a bright, tangy finish.
Transfer to a serving dish and serve immediately. Enjoy!
