Ready to try it? Here’s what you’ll need:

Ingredients:

  • 1 (12 oz.) bag Green Giant® Restaurant Style Garlic Parmesan Green Beans
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Empty the bag of frozen Green Giant Garlic Parmesan Green Beans into the air fryer basket. You can spread them out in a single layer for more even crisping, but slight overlapping is okay. If desired, lightly coat the beans with olive oil for extra crispness.

  4. Remove from the air fryer and serve immediately. Enjoy!

FAQs:

Can I use fresh green beans instead? Absolutely! Simply trim and wash fresh green beans, toss them with olive oil, garlic powder, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper, then air fry following the same instructions for frozen beans. You may need to adjust the cooking time slightly depending on the thickness of your fresh beans.

Do I have to use olive oil? The olive oil is optional, but it helps to crisp up the beans. If you prefer to skip it, the beans will still be delicious.

What can I serve with these air fryer green beans? These beans pair well with a variety of dishes, such as chicken, fish, steak, or pork. They’re also a great addition to a veggie burger or wrap.

Tips:

  • For an extra cheesy flavor, sprinkle the beans with additional parmesan cheese after they come out of the air fryer.
  • If your air fryer tends to run hot, start checking the beans for doneness after 6-7 minutes.
  • These air fryer green beans are best served immediately. However, they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

With this easy recipe, you can enjoy delicious and healthy Green Giant Garlic Parmesan Green Beans in minutes using your air fryer. Give it a try and see for yourself!
