  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting.
  2. Prepare Green Beans: Trim the ends off the fresh green beans and place them in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Toss with Seasoning: Drizzle olive oil over the green beans, add the minced garlic, salt, and pepper, then toss everything together to coat the beans evenly.
  4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned green beans in a single layer on a baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
