Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound fresh green beans trimmed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: grated Parmesan cheese lemon zest, or red pepper flakes for garnish

Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Mixing bowl
  • Tongs

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer
  2. Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for about 3 minutes. This helps the green beans cook evenly and achieve a nice crisp.
  3. Season the Green Beans
  4. In a mixing bowl, toss the green beans with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Make sure the green beans are evenly coated.
  5. Cook the Green Beans
  6. Place the seasoned green beans in the air fryer basket in an even layer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking. They’re done when they’re tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
  7. Optional Garnishes
  8. For an extra layer of flavor, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, or a pinch of red pepper flakes before serving.
