Roasted garlic green beans are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that pairs well with various main courses. This recipe brings out the natural flavors of green beans with a hint of garlic, making it a family favorite. It's perfect for weeknight dinners or holiday gatherings.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash the green beans thoroughly and trim the ends.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the green beans, olive oil, and minced garlic.
- Toss everything together until the green beans are evenly coated with the oil and garlic.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss again to ensure even distribution.
- Spread the green beans out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure they are not too crowded to ensure 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, stirring halfway through the cooking time.
- Remove the roasted green beans from the oven and transfer to a serving dish.
- Serve immediately as a side dish.
Tips:
- Use fresh green beans for the best texture and flavor. If you use frozen green beans, thaw and pat them dry before cooking.
- Trim the ends of the green beans to ensure even cooking.
- Do not overcrowd the baking sheet; this allows the green beans to roast evenly and become crispy.
- You can add a squeeze of lemon juice or sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese before serving for an extra flavor boost.
- If you like a bit of spice, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes.
