Ingredients
- 1 pound of fresh green beans, ends trimmed
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
1. Preparing the Green Beans: Start by washing your fresh green beans in cold water. Trim off the ends with a knife. This step ensures we’re cooking only the tender parts of the beans.
2. Mixing Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, toss the trimmed green beans with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder over the beans. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors.
3. Air Frying to Perfection: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the green beans in the air fryer basket in a single layer to avoid overcrowding, which helps in cooking them evenly. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly crispy. Shake the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crispness.
Notes
Keep in mind that air fryer models can vary in how they cook. It’s important to adjust the cooking time slightly based on your specific air fryer and how crispy you prefer your green beans.
