Description

These roasted green beans, seasoned with olive oil, salt, and pepper, are cooked in a very hot oven until tender, caramelized, and full of flavor.

Ingredients

2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

1 Gather all ingredients and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2 Rinse green beans and pat dry with paper towels; spread onto a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle beans with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Use your hands to toss the beans until evenly coated with oil; spread out in a single layer.
3 Roast in the preheated oven until beans are crisp-tender, look slightly shriveled, and start to show golden caramelized spots, 15 to 25 minutes.
4 Serve and enjoy!
