Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Step 2: In a large bowl, toss the green beans with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Step 3: Spread the green beans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Step 4: Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the green beans are tender-crisp and slightly browned.
- Step 5: Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. If desired, drizzle with lemon juice before serving. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Store leftover roasted green beans in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For best results, reheat in a preheated oven or air fryer to re-crisp the green beans instead of microwaving.
- These parmesan green beans are a delicious side dish alongside grilled chicken or fish, adding a flavorful veggie boost to your meal.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet; spread the green beans in a single layer to ensure even roasting and avoid steaming.
