Easy Garlic Green Beans
Description
To prepare Easy Garlic Green Beans, fresh green beans are trimmed and coated with olive oil, crushed garlic cloves, sea salt, and black pepper. Roasting at 200°C (400°F) for about 25 minutes, turning midway, achieves tender beans with slightly crispy edges and infused garlic aroma.
Optional toppings like flaked almonds add crunch and nutty flavor. Additional seasoning options include paprika, chili powder, or preferred spice blends for warmth and complexity. A squeeze of lemon juice before serving introduces a fresh acidity that balances the roasted flavor.
