Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large bowl, toss green beans with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread green beans evenly on a parchment or foil lined baking sheet.
Roast in oven until lightly browned, 10-12 minutes.
Sprinkle green beans with garlic and toss to combine. Roast for another 5 minutes until beans are tender and caramelized.
Remove from oven and toss with balsamic vinegar.

Make sure your green beans are nice and dry before roasting to ensure proper browning and caramelization for that nutty flavor. If you don’t want to bother with fresh garlic, substitute with ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder.
