Garlic-roasted green beans

Garlic-roasted green beans are a simple, delicious, and healthy side dish that complements a variety of main courses. This recipe combines fresh green beans with garlic powder and olive oil, resulting in tender, flavorful beans that are sure to be a hit at any meal.

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This ensures the oven is hot enough to roast the green beans perfectly.
2. Prepare the Green Beans:
Wash and trim the ends of the green beans. Make sure to pat them dry with a kitchen towel or paper towels to remove any excess moisture, which can prevent them from roasting properly.
3. Season the Green Beans:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the green beans with olive oil and garlic powder. Toss everything together until the green beans are evenly coated.
4. Arrange on Baking Sheet:
Spread the green beans out in a single layer on a baking sheet. It's important not to overcrowd the baking sheet to ensure even roasting. Use a second baking sheet if necessary.
5. Roast:
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through. The green beans should be tender and have a slight char on the edges.
6. Check and Serve:
After roasting, check the doneness of the green beans. They should be fork-tender and have a golden-brown color. Remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
7. Serve:
Transfer the garlic-roasted green beans to a serving dish. These can be served hot as a side dish to your favorite main course.
8. Optional:
For extra flavor, you can sprinkle a bit of sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, or even a squeeze of lemon juice over the roasted green beans before serving.

Tips:

- Use fresh, firm green beans for the best texture and flavor.

- Make sure the green beans are evenly coated with olive oil and garlic powder for consistent seasoning.

- Spread the green beans out in a single layer on the baking sheet to ensure even roasting.

- You can add freshly minced garlic for an extra punch of garlic flavor.

- Add a squeeze of lemon juice or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese after roasting for an additional layer of flavor.
