Ingredients
- 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 oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it is hot enough for roasting the green beans to a perfect crisp.
- Prepare green beans: In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh green beans with olive oil, Parmesan cheese, panko bread crumbs, salt, and garlic powder. Toss everything together to coat the green beans evenly with all the seasonings and toppings.
- Roast: Spread the coated green beans in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast them in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time, until the green beans are tender and the toppings are golden and crispy.
- Serve: Transfer the roasted green beans to a serving platter and sprinkle with an additional pinch of Parmesan cheese before serving for extra cheesy flavor.
Notes
- For extra garlic flavor, use fresh roasted garlic instead of garlic powder.
- Make sure to spread green beans in a single layer on the baking sheet for even roasting.
- Panko bread crumbs provide extra crunch; if unavailable, regular bread crumbs can be substituted.
- Adjust salt to taste based on your dietary needs.
