You will love this simple recipe for roasted green beans tossed with garlic and Parmesan cheese. It creates a flavorful, crisp side dish perfect for weeknight dinners or holiday tables.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Place the trimmed green beans on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Drizzle the olive oil over the green beans and toss them until they are evenly coated.
  4. Sprinkle the minced garlic, salt, and pepper over the beans. Toss again to distribute the seasonings.
  5. Spread the green beans into a single layer on the baking sheet.
  6. Roast for 15 minutes.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the beans.
  8. Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 5 to 7 minutes, or until the beans are tender-crisp and the cheese is lightly golden.
  9. Serve these flavorful green beans immediately as a quick side dish.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, you can use frozen green beans, but thaw and pat them very dry before tossing with oil.
  • If you are making this for a larger crowd, like Thanksgiving, spread the beans onto two separate baking sheets to prevent steaming.
  • You can substitute dried minced garlic for fresh if needed, using 1/4 teaspoon.
