Green beans are a great snack and a perfect side dish for any meal. They are delicious, nutritious, flavorful, and easy to make.

I like to cook frozen green beans in the air fryer as it is very quick and easy. It takes only a few minutes and only a few ingredients for seasoning.

Frozen green beans are available in the freezer section of grocery stores. You can also buy in bulk when you find fresh ones at a great price and store them in the freezer after rinsing them with water and drying them with a kitchen towel.

Ingredients

The main ingredient is of course frozen green beans. You can very well use the fresh ones or even freeze them when you buy them in bulk. I have made this non-breaded frozen green beans recipe in the air fryer with very few pantry ingredients.

For the seasoning, you will need some olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and red chili flakes. You can also use sea salt and also skip the chili flakes if you do not like them spicy or if you are making them for kids. Alternatively, you can also use some red chili powder.

Instructions

Making frozen green beans in an air fryer is very simple and quick. First, take a bag of frozen green beans and empty it into a mixing bowl. Just like most frozen veggies, there is no need to defrost the frozen green beans as you can cook them directly from frozen.

Mix in the olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and some red chili flakes if you want them spicy. Toss everything to ensure that the green beans are well coated.

Preheat the air fryer to 390°F and then put the green beans into the air fryer basket. Air fry for 8 minutes. After 4-5 minutes, shake the basket once and continue to cook for the remaining time.

Green beans will be well cooked, you can insert a fork and test for doneness. It should insert easily and that is a good sign that the green beans are cooked.

If you like them a little more well done then you can cook for an additional minute if needed. You can also sprinkle some salt or red chili flakes if needed.

Equipment
