Instructions
- Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.
- In a large bowl, add green beans, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and salt to taste and pepper to taste (I like at least 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; sometimes I do a little more).
- Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Roast until lightly browned in some places but still crispy, about 20 to 25 minutes.
Notes
- Green beans: Remove the stem ends and any tough strings that run along the length of the beans, if applicable. There’s no need to trim off the tails. Some love their green beans “frenched,” or sliced lengthwise down the middle.
- Lemon: The zest of one lemon (about 1 teaspoon) can be added with the lemon juice. Just zest the lemon before you cut it to squeeze it.
- Salt: For 2 pounds of beans, I like at least 1/2 teaspoon salt, but sometimes I do a full teaspoon. If you're not sure, start with a small amount, then taste test after roasting and add more if needed.
- Yield: 2 pounds of beans will serve 8 as a side dish (1/2 cup per serving).
- Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. They are great tossed into salads or grain bowls.
