Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and trim the ends off the green beans. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Finely chop the onion into small pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the green beans, chopped onion, and cashews. Drizzle the olive oil over the mixture and toss everything together until the green beans, onion, and cashews are evenly coated with oil.
Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Toss again to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Spread the mixture evenly on a large baking sheet, making sure the green beans are in a single layer for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the green beans are tender and slightly browned, and the cashews are golden.
Halfway through the cooking time, take the baking sheet out of the oven and give the mixture a good stir to ensure even roasting. Return the baking sheet to the oven to finish roasting.
Once the green beans are roasted to your liking, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Transfer the roasted green beans, onions, and cashews to a serving dish.
Serve immediately as a delicious side dish or enjoy it on its own. This dish pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, fish, or tofu.
Tips:
- Make sure to trim the ends of the green beans before cooking for a cleaner presentation and easier eating.
- Spread the green beans, onions, and cashews in an even layer on the baking sheet to ensure even roasting and avoid steaming.
- Stir the mixture halfway through the roasting time for an even golden-brown color and better texture.
- Feel free to season with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs or spices to enhance the flavor.
Roasted green beans and cashews with onion and olive oil is a versatile and easy-to-make dish that complements any meal. By following these tips and paying attention to roasting time, you'll create a flavorful, crunchy, and satisfying side that will become a family favorite.
