Roasted Green Beans are delicious, crispy, and easy to make. Whip them up in just 15 minutes with only 5 ingredients.
I love the flavor of a simple roasted veggie side because it goes with literally everything! Plus, they’re so quick and easy to make, not to mention affordable.


I love how simple roasted veggies pair with just about anything! They’re quick, easy, and budget-friendly, making them a go-to side.
These roasted green beans are one of my favorites—crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious!
- Green beans — I generally buy around 2 pounds of bulk fresh green beans. You’ll need to rinse them well and remove ends, but to save time you can buy pre-washed/cut beans.
- Oil — Extra virgin olive oil is my go-to for roasting veggies, though avocado oil also works nicely.
- Garlic — Chop up two fresh cloves or use a jar of minced garlic to save some time, if preferred. You can also use garlic powder.
- Spices — I like to keep things simple with Italian seasonings, kosher salt and black pepper.

- Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (218°C).
- Rinse green beans and pat dry, then use a small sharp knife to remove ends. I recommend to trim green beans before roast them.
- Put the beans in a large bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil. Then, add Italian seasonings and garlic. Finally, sprinkle a little salt and black pepper on top.
- Stir and toss well to coat all beans evenly in oil and spices.

Transfer to baking sheet:
- Spread the beans in a single layer on a large baking sheet or pan. Do not overcrowd the sheet. If needed, work in batches.

- Roast seasoned beans for approximately 8 minutes, until tender
- Remove them from the oven, then transfer to a serving plate. If you prefer, top it with some chopped nuts like pine nuts, walnuts and pecans. Enjoy!

Recipe Tips
- Veggies are generally roasted at very high temperatures in the oven. This means you should be sure to use a high smoke-point oil like avocado oil or olive oil.
- After rinsing your green beans, be sure to dry them thoroughly so that the oil and seasonings stick.
- When trimming them, note it is most important to remove the end where the bean was attached to the stalk of the plant. This portion is quite tough, but you can leave or remove the end with the curvy tail based on your preference.

- A simple poultry dish! Roasted green beans go perfectly with my creamy parmesan chicken skillet or these ground turkey meatballs.
- Steak or seafood: Skillet garlic butter steak and Cajun shrimp skewers all go great with beans.
- A pork main like garlic butter baked pork chops or roasted pork tenderloin!
- Serve it also with other vegetable side dishes like broccoli, carrots and asparagus.

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!

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 😉
