Crisp-tender green beans tossed with garlic, olive oil, and golden Parmesan cheese. Beans Parmesan is a quick, flavorful side dish that’s light, cheesy, and full of Italian-inspired goodness.

Ingredients

  • Fresh Green Beans: 1 pound, trimmed
  • Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic (minced): 2 cloves
  • Salt: ½ teaspoon
  • Black Pepper: ¼ teaspoon
  • Parmesan Cheese (grated): ⅓ cup
  • Lemon Zest (optional): ½ teaspoon
  • Crushed Red Pepper (optional): A pinch

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) or heat a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Toss green beans with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Spread beans evenly on a baking sheet or in a skillet.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Cook until tender-crisp and lightly blistered—10–12 minutes in the oven or 8–10 minutes on the stove.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Sprinkle Parmesan evenly over beans during the last 2–3 minutes to melt and turn golden.
  6. Finishing Touches: Add lemon zest or red pepper flakes if desired.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve hot with extra Parmesan on top.

Notes

  • Pat beans dry before cooking for best crispness.
  • Do not overcook—keep them bright green and tender-crisp.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for a golden crust.
  • Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze for extra flavor.
