Ingredients:

  • 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Rinse the green beans under cold water and pat them completely dry with paper towels.
  3. Line up the beans and slice off the stem ends.
  4. Place the dried beans in a large bowl, drizzle with 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp fine sea salt, 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper, and 1/4 tsp onion powder.
  5. Stir until every bean is evenly coated.
  6. Arrange the beans on a baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow for air circulation.
  7. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 15–20 minutes until the beans develop a chestnut brown char on the edges and smell nutty.
