Ingredients
  

  • Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this delightful dish:
  • 2 cups frozen green beans
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or any vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder substitutes: onion powder or fresh minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: lemon zest or parmesan cheese for topping

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). It’s essential to have it ready, so the green beans cook evenly!
  2. Prepare the Beans: In a mixing bowl, combine the frozen green beans with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together so the seasonings coat the beans uniformly.
  3. Smart Cooking: Place the seasoned green beans in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Don’t overstuff the basket; it’s okay if some are stacked but aim for a single layer.
  4. Cooking Time: Air fry the green beans for about 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.* All models vary slightly, so keep an eye out for your desired crunchiness.
  5. Check for Done-ness: If you want them crunchier (who doesn’t?), give them an additional 2-5 minutes. Remember, they continue to cook a bit after being removed from the heat!
  6. Garnish: If you fancy, sprinkle some lemon zest or grated parmesan cheese on top before serving.
  7. Serve & Enjoy: Plate your crispy green beans alongside your favorite dish!
