Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh green beans (string beans)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Rinse the green beans under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Trim the ends off the green beans if necessary.
In a large bowl, combine the green beans, olive oil, minced garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
Transfer the seasoned green beans to the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out in a single layer to ensure even roasting.
Roast the green beans in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and lightly caramelized.
Optional: Sprinkle the roasted green beans with lemon zest for a bright, zesty finish.
Serve immediately as a delicious and healthy side dish.
