Notes

  • Be Sure to Preheat the oven.  A hot oven from the very start is vital to getting the green beans crispy.
  • Don’t be shy with the oil. Fat is the key to roasting any vegetable. If you don’t use enough oil, the beans will turn out dry.
  • Cut the green beans equal sizes so they cook evenly.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan. Having a crowded pan will result in steaming instead of roasting and they won't crisp up.
