We have green beans every week at home, sometimes we simply steam them and serve with a little salt, pepper and lime juice. But other times, we like to roast them using an air fryer, or the oven because this cooking method has a deeper slightly caramelized flavor that makes them savory and with a bit of a nutty flavor profile. Steamed green beans are great for a fresher and milder flavor.

Air-Fryer Noodles

Yields 4 servings

Ingredients:
1 lb. green beans
4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
½ tsp granulated garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
Lemon Wedges, as garnish

Directions:

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F or 190ºC.
Toss green beans with olive oil and garlic to lightly coat. Place them in the air fryer basket or tray. Don’t overcrowd them.
Air fry for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure a uniform, tender-crisp texture.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Garnish and serve warm.
To store, cool completely and refrigerate in an airtight container for up to five days.
Oven directions: Preheat oven at 425ºF and follow the same procedure. Add the green beans to a baking sheet and roast for 15-16 minutes, moving them halfway through.
