Roasted Green Beans

Roasted Green Beans get tossed with olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper, then blasted in a hot oven until tender-crisp with caramelized edges. The high heat concentrates their natural sweetness and adds a lightly smoky, toasty note. Serve as a versatile side for weeknight dinners or holiday spreads when you want bright flavor and satisfying texture.

Roasted Green Beans
  1. 1

    Gather all ingredients and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Rinse the green beans and pat them dry with paper towels; spread them on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle the beans with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Toss the beans with your hands until they are evenly coated with the oil; spread them out in a single layer.

  3. 3

    Roast in the preheated oven until the beans are crisp-tender, look slightly shriveled, and begin to show golden caramelized spots, 15 to 25 minutes.

  4. 4

    Serve and enjoy!
