How to Make Crispy Roasted Green Beans
This tutorial on How to Make Crispy Roasted Green Beans teaches you how to make a quick and delicious vegetable side dish that adds colour and nutrients to your meal!
Hey guys! It’s been a week since I posted a delicious recipe for you. I would like to apologize. Last week, my husband and I were on vacation, and I thought I would have time to post from there. Unfortunately, time was so short, and also, the internet connection was limited on my phone. So sorry! We went to Las Vegas for a friend’s wedding.
Oh gosh… My husband and I had such a great time down there, especially because it was my first time to Vegas. What a fun place!! I confess I don’t like casinos much (my husband looooves them), but there are so many things to do other than gambling.
We went to the Jersey Boys musical, which was FANTASTIC! I highly recommend this musical if you are planning to go to Vegas. The actor/singer has almost the same voice as Frankie Valli – the real singer of the Four Seasons.
Although I am only 32 years old (well… tomorrow I turn 33 ;-)) I love their old songs because they are just so fun to dance to, and they are really good!! But, you can also watch the movie. It’s great, too.
How to cook green beans:
After vacation, you just want to cook something easy but tasty, right? Well, at least I am like that. I know this recipe is so simple, but I promise it is worth it. These easy baked green beans add colour to your meal, and it’s a perfect crispy side dish to go with your favourite protein! Need a second side dish to go with your protein? Try my fluffy rice or fluffy quinoa.
How can we make them so crispy??? Here are some simple tips:
- The first tip is to place a jellyroll pan in the oven for 10 minutes before you add the seasoned green beans. This is a great tip to avoid soggy roasted green beans.
- Another important tip for this recipe is to lay the green beans in a single layer on the jellyroll pan. If you don’t, the green beans may steam instead of becoming crispy.
- The last tip is to make sure every single bean is coated. This keeps the green beans from drying out.
I am sure if you follow these simple and important tips, you will have a very tasty and crispy roasted green bean dish. Want to browse all my healthy recipe posts?

Oh my goodness, those photos are AMAZING. Truly. The lighting is just perfect! What setup do you use? And I don’t usually like green beans.. EXCEPT if they’re truly crispy. So we’re definitely trying these!
I used aperture 2.8. My lens is 50mm 1.4! Thanks for stopping by!
Love the tip about preheating the pan… didn’t know that! Very cool!
Thanks, Chris!

Sounds like you had a great wedding and first trip to Vegas. HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR TOMORROW!! <3 33 years young 🙂
Thanks for your comment, Tash!
dog these came out raw, like I cooked them for twice the time recommended and bit into a raw, hot bean
Recommend par cooking first. Blanch in hot water for few minutes until bright green. Don’t overcook. Then proceed to recipe.
I love green beans! But I have never thought to roast them! Sounds amazing!
Thanks a lot 😉
These pictures are so bright and lively!! I feel like I can grab these beans from the screen and eat them up!! Gorgeous!
Thanks for your compliment, Ami!

Welcome home Olivia! So glad you had a break in Vegas. I get a bit overwhelmed when I go, so a few days is just fine with me! These green beans are beautiful! I think enjoying them simply is best. Thank you for the delightful recipe!

The.Boy would DIE to go to the Pawn Stars store! SO glad to hear it was worth going to. Maybe if we’re ever in Vegas….

Wow great tips, I had no idea. For sure next time I will make sure I follow all three. Thanks for this post! The green beans look superb by the way. I could probably eat the entire plate all on my own.
You are so welcome, Miryam! So glad you stopped by 😉
I loveee green beans and this recipe looks so great. Awesome tip about putting the pan in the oven ahead of time!!
Thanks a lot!
Green beans have always been a vegetable that I tend to avoid cooking as when I do cook them they always end up really bland, watery and flavourless. You have definitely inspired me to try your roasted version, they look great and I bet they are bursting full of yummy flavour!
Please try this recipe. For sure you would love this roasted green beans!
Happy birthday!!!! Sounds like you had a great time in vegas! 🙂 I always think I’ll have time to work a little on vacation and it just never happens!
These green beans sound completely delicious – I loveeee green beans!
Thanks a lot, Ashley! Have a great week 😉
It sounds like you had a wonderful time in Vegas! I think that’s a pretty good reason not to post! I love green beans, but haven’t had them in ages. Thanks for the tips, will have to try this recipe 🙂
We had, Louisa! It was a very fun trip! I hope you try this recipe 😉
After reading this, I’m feeling rather ashamed that I’ve never roasted green beans before!
Now that I know how, I’m definitely going to!
Your trip sounds wonderful, Olivia … I’d love to go to Las Vegas!
You would love Vegas, Helen. So much to do there 😉
I hope you like my tips! Thanks a lot!
I have been married over 50 years, and this is the worst dish my wife has ever made. Inedible. Nachos tonight.
If I make these hours ahead of time will they remain crispy???
Unfortunately no. I made these hours ahead of time one day and they weren’t very crispy, but they were tasty anyway 😉
The ads on this page make it unbearable.
I’m sorry about that, Bthom. I’ll talk to the ad manager to see what we can do to make this page more reader friendly.
OMG… get a life. Everyone and there dogs goes to Vegas. How desperate are you?
PS I never read about your shittie road trip… I just skimmed to the part where it actually starst to talk about the Subject line and was surprised of how big of a loser you have to be to write that much about a trip instead of the true subject. I’m guessing your husband can’t stand you which is why you have to write so much about “GREEN BEANS” LMAO
You have a cook time of 18 minutes at the top of the recipe but the instructions call for baking 8 minutes. Are you including the pan preheat of 10 minutes in the cook time or is the 8 minutes a typo?
How can I keep the green beanstalk warm and tasty, without getting soggy or taking up oven space over THanksgiving. Once they are cooked can I keep them warm in a cracked open crock pot? Thoughts. Then I could cook them at my house and transport to in-laws. I want to be healthy and helpful. There is counter space, but the oven is full. 😢 Any ideas at all? Thanks so much and I hope this reaches someone.
