This oldie-but-goodie side dish has been updated with new pictures & a few small tweaks to the recipe. We still make these green beans weekly!
I love taking an every day veggie and transforming it with super simple ingredients. In this recipe, green beans get a crispy twist with savory seasonings and some time spent roasting in the oven – which always seems to take a vegetable’s flavor up a notch.
The green beans cook up almost like “fries” – tender on the inside, but crunchy and crisp on the outside. Perfect for snacking and excellent as a simple side, these green beans have remained a go-to recipe for us for years.
Simply preheat the oven, toss the green beans with a little EVOO and spices, and bake until crisp. I often turn on the broiler for the last few minutes, just for a little extra crunch. We serve these with steaks, under curries, and alongside just about anything.
Change up the spices to fit your flavor profile, and enjoy!

October 27, 2021 at 12:00 pmThis was delicious! I was afraid of the fennel…but it gave the sauce the best flavor! I didn’t have fresh oregano…I’m sure it would have been even better! Thanks so much..it’s a keeper!
