Serves 4

Ingredients

Green beans
1 pound, trimmed
Olive oil
2 tablespoons
Garlic
3 cloves, minced
Buffalo sauce
1/2 cup
Salt
1/2 teaspoon
Black pepper
1/4 teaspoon
Blue cheese
1/3 cup, crumbled

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the trimmed green beans, olive oil, minced garlic, buffalo sauce, salt, and black pepper. Toss well until the green beans are evenly coated.
  3. Spread the green beans out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  4. Roast in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the green beans are tender and slightly charred, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  5. Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese over the hot green beans, allowing it to melt slightly from the heat.
  6. Serve warm as a zesty side dish or a spicy snack.

Tips

  • 💡 For an extra kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the green beans before roasting.
  • 💡 You can substitute the blue cheese with feta or goat cheese for a different flavor profile.
  • 💡 To make it a complete meal, consider adding grilled chicken or shrimp alongside the green beans.
