Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 2 pounds green beans trimmed
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- salt and ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°. Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking oil spray.
- In a medium bowl, place green beans, olive oil, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix well everything together.
- Arrange green bean mixture in a single layer on prepared baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top of the beans.
- Bake for about 10 minutes. Use a spatula to flip the green beans and continue cooking another 5-10 minutes or until crisp-tender.
Notes
- You can quickly trim the green beans by lining them up on a cutting board and cutting the tops and bottoms off all together.
- Be careful to place the green beans in a single layer as they can steam if they're stacked.
- Always wash the beans beforehand and pat them dry with a paper towel so the oil and seasoning will stick better to them.
- If you’re watching your sodium, I recommend leaving out the salt altogether, as the parmesan cheese is plenty salty.
