Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 to 1½ pounds fresh green beans
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1½ tablespoons garlic herb seasoning
Instructions
- Prepare the green beans: Rinse the fresh green beans thoroughly under cold water and trim off the ends of each bean to remove any tough stems.
- Season the beans: In a large bowl, toss the green beans with 2 teaspoons of olive oil until they are evenly coated. Then sprinkle 1½ tablespoons of garlic herb seasoning over the beans and toss again to distribute the seasoning uniformly.
- Preheat the grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
- Grill the green beans: Place the seasoned green beans directly on the grill grates or use a grill basket. Grill for about 5 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally until the beans are tender and have light char marks.
- Serve: Remove the green beans from the grill and transfer them to a serving dish. Serve immediately as a delicious and healthy side dish.
Notes
- For even cooking, try to select green beans of similar size.
- You can customize the seasoning by adding crushed red pepper flakes for some heat or a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness.
- If you don’t have a grill, you can also cook the seasoned green beans in a grill pan on the stovetop.
