Ingredients

• 1 pound fresh green beans
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash and trim the ends of the green beans. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the green beans with the olive oil, ensuring each bean is evenly coated.

Step 4

Sprinkle the green beans with the freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, tossing them until well mixed.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned green beans in an even layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they aren't overcrowded to allow for even roasting.

Step 6

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the green beans for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 7

Once the green beans are done roasting, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.

Step 8

While still hot, sprinkle the green beans with lemon zest and freshly chopped parsley for added flavor and freshness.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your perfectly roasted, low sodium green beans!
