Description

This Roasted Parmesan Green Beans recipe is a delicious and easy side dish featuring fresh green beans tossed in olive oil, Parmesan cheese, crunchy panko breadcrumbs, and a hint of garlic, then roasted to tender perfection. Perfect as a savory accompaniment to any meal, this dish combines crispy textures and rich flavors in just 30 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale

Green Beans

  • 1 lb fresh green beans

Seasoning and Coating

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons grated or shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (or fresh roasted garlic)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (205 degrees Celsius) to prepare for roasting the green beans evenly and thoroughly.
  2. Prepare Green Beans: In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh green beans with olive oil, grated Parmesan cheese, panko bread crumbs, salt, and garlic powder. Toss everything together well to ensure each green bean is evenly coated with the mixture.
  3. Roast: Spread the coated green beans in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast them in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time to promote even browning and tenderness.
  4. Serve: Once the green beans are tender and the bread crumbs are crispy, transfer them to a serving platter. Add an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top before serving for added flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, use fresh panko breadcrumbs instead of regular ones.
  • If you prefer a more garlicky flavor, substitute garlic powder with freshly minced or roasted garlic.
  • Keep an eye on the green beans towards the end of roasting to avoid burning the breadcrumbs.
  • This dish can be served warm or at room temperature and pairs nicely with grilled meats and roasted chicken.
  • To make it gluten-free, substitute panko breadcrumbs with gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed nuts.
