Ingredients
Scale
Green Beans Mixture
- 1 lb fresh green beans
- 2 TBSP olive oil
- 2 TBSP grated or shredded Parmesan cheese
- 2 TBSP panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder (or fresh roasted garlic)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for roasting the green beans, ensuring a hot environment for crisp results.
- Prepare green beans: In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh green beans with olive oil, grated Parmesan cheese, panko bread crumbs, salt, and garlic powder. Toss thoroughly until each bean is well-coated with the mixture.
- Roast the green beans: Spread the coated green beans evenly on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to promote even cooking and browning. The beans should become tender and develop a golden crunchy texture.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and transfer the green beans to a serving platter. Optionally top with an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese before serving to enhance flavor and presentation.
Notes
- Use fresh green beans for the best texture and flavor.
- Adjust roasting time slightly if you prefer firmer or softer green beans.
- Panko bread crumbs add extra crunch—feel free to substitute with regular bread crumbs if needed.
- For a garlicky boost, fresh roasted garlic can replace garlic powder.
- Serve immediately for the crispiest texture.
