Ingredients 

  • 1 lb Frozen Green Beans
  • Salt and Black Pepper , (to taste)
  • 3 tbsp Salted Butter
  • 3 cloves Garlic, (diced)
  • 1/2 tsp Cajun Seasoning
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • Sliced Almonds, (for garnish)

Instructions 

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F. While it heats up, line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread your frozen green beans out in a single layer. Drizzle them with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Roast on the top rack of the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, keeping a close eye so they don’t burn. You’re looking for golden brown edges and extra crispy green beans.
  • While they’re roasting, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced garlic, lemon juice, and Cajun seasoning, cooking until fragrant (2-3 minutes). Set aside.
  • Once the beans are done roasting, toss them in the garlic butter mixture.
  • Transfer to a serving plate and top with sliced almonds for a final touch of nutty flavor. Garnish with flaky sea salt (optional).

Notes

  • Don't overcrowd your pan. Use a large baking sheet or split the green beans between two baking sheets if you need more room. Overcrowding the pan prevents the beans from crisping up.
  • Don’t skip the parchment paper. It prevents sticking and makes cleanup a breeze. You can also use aluminum foil, just make sure to spray the foil so that the green beans don't stick. 
  • Toss in garlic butter immediately. The warmth from the beans will absorb all that buttery goodness.
