Ingredients

Scale

Green Beans

  • 500 g / 1 lb green beans, ends trimmed

Seasoning and Topping

  • 2 tbsp olive oil, separated
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven or broiler: Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F) or set your broiler/grill on high, positioning the rack about 30 cm (12 inches) from the heat source to ensure optimal roasting or broiling conditions.
  2. Prepare the green beans: Place the trimmed green beans on a baking tray. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, add the finely chopped garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together to coat the beans evenly with the seasonings and oil.
  3. Arrange the beans: Spread the seasoned green beans out in two rows on the tray, lining them up close to each other for even cooking and topping coverage.
  4. Add the breadcrumb and parmesan topping: Sprinkle the panko breadcrumbs evenly over the arranged green beans, followed by the grated parmesan cheese. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to help the topping crisp up.
  5. Roast or broil the beans: Place the tray in the oven and roast for 15 minutes, or if using the broiler/grill, cook for about 8 minutes. The topping should turn golden brown, signaling that the beans are ready.
  6. Serve: Use a spatula or an egg flip to transfer the roasted green beans to a serving platter. Serve immediately while the topping is crisp and the beans are hot.

Notes

  • You can use fresh or frozen green beans; if frozen, thaw and pat dry before using to ensure crispiness.
  • For a nuttier flavor, try using freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Adjust salt according to your taste or dietary needs.
  • If you prefer a gluten-free option, substitute panko breadcrumbs with gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed nuts.
  • Serve as a side dish to grilled meats, roasted chicken, or pasta dishes for a complete meal.
