I'm still experimenting with this recipe. The first time was perfection, but now I can't find the recipe I based it on.
- green beans, whole, fresh, with ends trimmed off
- the tiniest bit of olive oil you can get away with - can this be done with broth instead?
- dash of Cajun seasoning - BE CAREFUL - NOT TOO MUCH
- sprinkle of nutritional yeast
Other ingredients to try for variety - garlic, onion powder, Sriracha sauce, Italian or Bruschetta seasonings, Panko bread crumbs
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Some similar recipes call for same time, but at 425.
- Mix all the ingredients in a bowl til seen beans are coated. Leave them in the bowl til ready to cook.
- Spread the beans out on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Turn the oven up to broil. Move the pan to the highest shelf and broil for a few minutes til the beans get just a little dark in places. Watch carefully - too long and they'll burn. NOTE: The second time I made this, the beans didn't achieve that really great crispiness I was after and they were a little too al dente. I think it's because I forgot to do this broil step.
