Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh green beans
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons grated or shredded Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (or fresh roasted garlic)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare the roasting environment.
- Prepare Green Beans: In a large mixing bowl, toss the fresh green beans with olive oil, Parmesan cheese, panko bread crumbs, salt, and garlic powder. Ensure that the green beans are evenly coated with all the ingredients for optimal flavor and texture.
- Roast: Spread the coated green beans evenly on a baking sheet. Place them in the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking. Roast until the beans are tender and the coating becomes crispy and golden brown.
- Serve: Transfer the roasted green beans to a serving platter and sprinkle with an extra pinch of Parmesan cheese on top before serving to add an extra burst of flavor.
Notes
- For extra garlic flavor, fresh roasted garlic can be used instead of garlic powder.
- Make sure to spread the green beans in a single layer on the baking sheet for even roasting and crispiness.
- Adjust the salt quantity according to taste preferences or dietary needs.
- Use freshly grated Parmesan for best flavor and melting quality.
