Description

Crispy and flavorful Air Fried Green Beans recipe that’s quick, easy, and perfect as a healthy side dish. Seasoned with garlic and onion powder, these green beans are air fried to perfection, making them tender with a delicious blistered texture.


Ingredients

Scale

Green Beans

  • 1 pound green beans, trimmed

Seasoning

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer. Preheat your air fryer at 375°F for 5 minutes to ensure it’s hot and ready for cooking.
  2. Toss Green Beans with Oil. Place the trimmed green beans into a large mixing bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss well to coat all the beans evenly with the oil.
  3. Season the Beans. Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper over the oiled green beans. Toss again to evenly distribute the seasonings for consistent flavor.
  4. Air Fry the Beans. Carefully arrange the seasoned green beans in a single layer inside the hot air fryer basket. Cook at 375°F for 8 to 10 minutes. Shake the basket 2 to 3 times during cooking to ensure even crisping and cooking.
  5. Serve Immediately. Once the beans are blistered and tender, remove them from the air fryer and serve immediately as a crunchy, savory side dish.

Notes

  • You can adjust the garlic and onion powder according to your taste preference.
  • Shaking the basket periodically helps cook the beans more evenly and prevents burning.
  • For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket.
  • Serve with a squeeze of lemon for a fresh twist.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days but are best enjoyed fresh.
