Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- Lemon wedges for serving (optional)
Instructions
Wash and trim the ends of the green beans. Pat them dry with a paper towel—this helps them crisp up better in the air fryer.
In a large bowl, toss the green beans with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika (if using). Mix well to coat evenly.
Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (190°C). Place the green beans in the air fryer basket in a single layer (cook in batches if needed). Air fry for 7-9 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until they are crispy on the edges and tender inside.
Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for extra flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy!
