Roasted green beans and cashews

Roasted green beans and cashews with onion and olive oil is a simple yet delicious side dish that brings together the nutty flavor of cashews, the sweetness of roasted onions, and the fresh snap of green beans. This dish is perfect for weeknight dinners or holiday feasts, and it's both healthy and satisfying.

Ingredients:

6 cups green beans
600g
8 tbsp onion
80g
2 tbsp olive oil
27g
3/4 cup cashew
100g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Green Beans:
Wash and trim the ends off the green beans. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
3. Chop the Onion:
Finely chop the onion into small pieces.
4. Mix the Ingredients:
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.
5. Season:
Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Toss again to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
6. Spread on a Baking Sheet:
Spread the mixture evenly on a large baking sheet, making sure the green beans are in a single layer for even roasting.
7. Roast:
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.
8. Stir Occasionally:
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.
9. Serve:
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.
10. Enjoy:
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.
