Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the trimmed green beans with olive oil until evenly coated. Add minced garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika (if using), and toss again to distribute the seasonings.
  3. Spread the green beans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they're not overcrowded to ensure even roasting and crispiness.
  4. Roast for 15-20 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the beans are tender-crisp and starting to brown at the edges.
  5. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. The residual heat will melt the cheese perfectly.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Notes

Dry beans are key for crispiness - make sure green beans are completely dry before tossing with oil. Don't overcrowd the baking sheet to prevent steaming. Use freshly minced garlic and quality Parmesan for best flavor.
