Steps

1Prep the green beans by washing and patting them dry with a paper towel. Mince the garlic, cut your basil into ribbons, and half your lemons. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
2On a baking sheet, toss the green beans with the lemon zest, half of the lemon juice, and the olive oil. Toss.
3Season with the salt, black pepper, half of the basil, and the red pepper flakes and toss again.
4Roast the green beans in the over for 10-15 minutes or until the green beans are cooked to your liking. We like ours with a nice crunch, but slightly softened.
5Once the green beans are cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and stir in more fresh basil, along with the remaining lemon juice.
6Top with lemon wedges and more red pepper flakes and lemon juice if desired and enjoy!
7Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in the microwave.
