Roasted Frozen Green Beans
Description
This simple recipe uses frozen green beans seasoned with avocado oil, coarse kosher salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mixing these ingredients ensures even coating. The beans are spread in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roasted at 425°F for 30 minutes.
Roasting frozen beans without thawing allows them to release moisture gradually and develop a roasted texture rather than becoming mushy. The seasoning blend adds savory, aromatic notes, while the avocado oil helps crisp the exterior. The result is a flavorful vegetable side that retains some snap despite the frozen start.
For best results, avoid undercooking, as roasting time is necessary to drive out excess water and achieve the desired roast. Do not thaw beforehand to prevent sogginess, and season generously to enhance flavor.
