Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound Fresh Green Beans (washed, dried, and trimmed) Should be firm and vibrant.
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil Helps with browning.
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder Adds savory depth.
  • 0.5 tsp Onion Powder Enhances flavor.
  • 0.5 tsp Salt Adjust to taste.
  • 0.25 tsp Black Pepper (freshly cracked) Adds a hint of spice.
  • 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese (optional) For a nutty richness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by washing your green beans and trimming the ends.
  2. Pat the green beans completely dry with a paper towel.
  3. In a medium bowl, toss the dry green beans with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the seasoned green beans in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  3. Air fry for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
  4. If using Parmesan, sprinkle it over the beans during the last 2 minutes of cooking.

Notes

Make sure to dry the beans thoroughly before coating them for maximum crispiness. Adjust cooking time based on your air fryer model.
