What’s the difference between Green Beans and Haricots Verts?
The short answer is not much. Technically Haricots Verts are a french version of a green bean, and typically skinnier and slightly more tender. You can use either in this recipe however, the cooking time will vary slightly given that the Haricots Verts are more delicate. While I love them both, I like using traditional green beans in this recipe because they can handle the roasting a little better.
How to prep Green Beans
It’s actually quite simple. Trim the stem with a sharp knife like this…
The other end is totally fine to leave as is. Green beans are super versatile and can be cooked many different ways. The method I will show you today is my family’s favorite way to enjoy this spring vegetable. Ava says, “these are the best green beans I’ve ever had!”
Once they’re trimmed and prepped, toss the beans with a little oil and your favorite spices and it’s as simple as that!
I can’t wait for you to add this easy side dish to your weekly menu. They go great with everything from chicken, to fish, to steak and more!
