I am adding today's recipe to my growing collection of oven roasted vegetables like this Oven Roasted Broccoli (One Pan) and this Oven Roasted Asparagus (One Pan) and these Quick Oven Roasted Tomatoes (One Pan). These green beans have the perfect texture- tender on the inside but crisp on the outside. The addition of roasted sesame seeds adds a subtle Asian flavor and crunch. Also, if you can't get enough of green beans, you must make these Green Beans with Bacon (One Pot).

Key ingredients
- Green beans- Be sure they are fresh, washed, dried, and trimmed.
- Olive oil- Helps to brown the beans and give flavor.
- Salt and pepper- Adjust according to personal preference.
- Onion powder- Get the onion flavor without the chunks.
- Garlic powder- Pairs perfectly with surrounding flavors.
- Ginger powder- In this case, fresh would be too much.
- Sesame seeds- Roasted are best.
Variations
- Add potatoes- This is quite popular. Mix in 1 cup small 1 inch potato cubes with the green beans and then bake. Make sure potatoes are not too big so that both, the beans and potatoes, cook fully at the same time.
- Add parmesan- When beans come out of the oven, sprinkle ⅓ cup parmesan cheese and let the heat melt it and serve immediately.
- Mix in carrots- Mix in 1 cup sliced round carrots with the green beans and then bake.
- Toss in some bacon- Mix in cooked crumbled bacon with the roasted beans at the end.
- Use almonds- Toss 2 tablespoon roasted sliced on top of your roasted beans at the end.

What to serve with crispy oven roasted green beans?
A classic choice to go with this dish his potatoes, and we all know how many ways potatoes can be served, but I'll give you a few different ideas. First, keeping with the same theme, Oven Roasted Potatoes (One Pan) are a great choice, because your oven is already prepped and ready. Of course, you can always do Creamy Mashed Potatoes Recipe (One Pot), a family favorite, or even Sweet Mashed Potatoes (One Pot). You can also serve with Grilled Chicken Breast (One Pan) or this Perfect Roast Beef (One Pot).
Tips and techniques
- Fresh or frozen green beans can both be used- Fresh and frozen beans are both roasted the same way although fresh beans cook a little faster than frozen beans. I think fresh tastes better.
- Adjust the amount of spices- Based on your preference.
- Use roasted sesame seeds- Since they have a better flavor profile.
- Instead of sesame seeds- You can also top off the beans with sliced almonds, finely chopped peanuts or even crumbled cooked bacon or just shredded parmesan cheese.
- For a spicy kick- Add ½ teaspoon red chili flakes.
- Make sue beans are totally dry- Or else the added moisture will make them soggy during baking.
Recipe FAQs
Roast them in the oven with some simple spices and a topping of roasted sesame seeds. They are crispy on the outside and have an amazing flavor with a little crunch.
You can use garlic powder or fresh garlic. If you are using fresh garlic, finely chop 2 cloves of garlic and mix that into the beans and roast both of them together.
Yes, you can roast them at 425 degrees for about 20 minutes or at 375 for about 30 minutes.
Storage
- Make ahead- I don't recommend making this in advance, because it tastes best fresh out of the oven.
- Refrigerate- This dish is best served fresh. You want the beans to be crisp and tender, not mushy.
- Freeze- Not recommended, because the texture of the beans will change and become soggy.
- Reheat- Not necessary for a dish that is best served fresh, but I would say putting it in the airfryer to warm them up would be your best bet.
