🥘 Ingredients
Main
  • 12 oz fresh green beans (trimmed)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
Seasoning
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
Finish
  • lemon zest (from 1/2 lemon)
Garnish
  • toasted almonds (sliced, for garnish)
📝 Instructions
  1. Wash green beans and trim the stem ends. Pat completely dry. Shared 💡 You do not need to trim both ends — just the stem end where it attached to the plant.
  2. Toss green beans with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Shared 💡 The garlic should stick to the beans — if it falls off, you need more oil.
  3. Preheat Ninja on Air Fry at 390°F for 3 minutes. Lower Oven 💡 High heat is key for blistering — you want those brown spots.
  4. Place green beans in the pan in a single layer. Air Fry at 390°F for 4 minutes. Lower Oven 💡 The beans should start to blister and brown in spots.
  5. Shake the pan. Air Fry at 390°F for another 3-4 minutes until blistered and tender-crisp. Lower Oven 💡 Green beans are done when they have brown blisters but still have a slight snap when bent.
  6. Transfer to a bowl, toss with lemon zest and toasted almonds. Serve immediately. Shared 💡 Lemon zest right at the end preserves its bright, aromatic oils.
💡 Ninja Tips

Fresh green beans work much better than frozen (which release too much water). For crispy garlic green beans, use thinly sliced garlic instead of minced — it gets crispy and nutty in the air fryer.

Scaling: To double: use two batches. To halve: use 6 oz green beans, halve everything.
