    Green bean side dishes have long been part of American home cooking, but the roasted, garlicky preparation gained popularity in the late 20th and early 21st centuries as roasting vegetables at high heat became a favored technique for bringing out natural sweetness and flavor.

    Crisp-tender, garlicky, and simply delicious

    Fresh green beans are roasted at high heat with garlic and olive oil until crisp-tender and lightly caramelized.

    Step by stepInstructions

    1. Preheat the oven to 220°C.
    2. Toss the green beans with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
    3. Spread in a single layer.
    4. Roast 15-20 minutes, tossing halfway through, until crisp-tender and lightly browned.
    5. Sprinkle with parmesan if desired.
    6. Serve immediately.

    💡 Chef tips & storage

    Spreading the beans in a single layer, without crowding the pan, ensures they roast rather than steam. Add the garlic in the last 10 minutes of roasting if you prefer it less browned.
