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?

How to Make Crispy Roasted Green Beans
Ingredients
- 2 pounds green beans trimmed
- 4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
- salt and ground fresh black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Place a baking sheet in the oven for 10 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, place the green beans and all the remaining ingredients.
- Mix well.
- Arrange the seasoned green beans in a single layer on the preheated baking sheet.
- Bake for about 8 minutes or until crisp-tender.
Tips
- Do not overpack the green beans on the sheet pan as that'll cause them to steam instead of roast.
- Trim the ends off the green beans as they are tough.
- Wash the green beans before using. Make sure you dry them thoroughly so the oil and seasoning sticks well.
- To store: You can store roasted green beans in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- To reheat: Reheat the green beans in the microwave, oven, or skillet.
- To freeze: You can freeze cooked green beans in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 3 months.

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.

Thalia @ butter and brioche says
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!
Olivia says
Please try this recipe. For sure you would love this roasted green beans!

We had, Louisa! It was a very fun trip! I hope you try this recipe 😉
Helen @ Scrummy Lane says
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!
Olivia says
You would love Vegas, Helen. So much to do there 😉

I have been married over 50 years, and this is the worst dish my wife has ever made. Inedible. Nachos tonight.
Christine says
If I make these hours ahead of time will they remain crispy???
Olivia says
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
Not a loser like like Andreo says
Yo. Your the f in loser , look at you big tough guy talking shit online cause u got a small tool. Why do u even come here. Oh cause u have no life and you feel powerful behind a keyboard. I would bitch slap if I ever met you … Go ahead talk smack to me. I’ll get your IP. Number
