Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil or olive oil
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • ½ teaspoon fine salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: lemon wedges for squeezing or grated lemon zest

Method
 

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the trimmed green beans with avocado oil, minced garlic, fine salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Arrange the seasoned green beans in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 7-8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until crisp-tender.
  4. If desired, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the green beans or top with grated lemon zest before serving.
  5. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Notes

- For maximum crispiness, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary.
- Internal temperature for perfectly cooked green beans is not applicable, look for crisp-tender texture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat in the air fryer for best texture.
