Roasted Haricots Vert

A simple, low carb, low calories side dish!
Jump to Recipe

Keep it simple; when it comes to vegetables there is no better recipe than a simple one. Not only is this recipe quick, and easy but it is incredibly delicious. You only need four ingredients – Haricots Vert, sesame oil, salt and the star of the show is the Szechuan Peppercorn, which you can find in your grocery store spice aisle. I also usually prefer to use Haricots Vert, better know as French style string beans. I personally feel they have better flavor than regular string beans so much so you can eat them raw. This simple recipe is also great for grilling – just place them in a grill basket and grill away. We typically eat string beans at least once a week – they are loaded with nutrients and low in calories. I encourage you to try this recipe and hope that you will enjoy it as much as we do. A great paring is my Broiled Salmon Recipe. Happy Cooking!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound haricots vert (French Style String Beans) ends snipped (i.e. cut off the tips)

  • 1 teaspoon szechuan peppercorn freshly ground
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt (adjust salt to suit your taste bud)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven 450 degrees.

    Note: Use the roast setting if your oven has this feature.

  2. Rinse and drain the haricots vert.

  3. Add the haricots vert to a parchment lined sheetpan.

  4. Add the sesame oil, ground peppercorns and salt. Mix thoroughly to coat the beans.

  5. Spread the haricots vert in a single layer on the sheetpan.

  6. Roast in the oven for 10 minutes.

  7. Remove the roasted beans from the oven. Transfer to a serving bowl or platter.

Recipe Notes

You can use regular freshly ground peppercorn instead of Szechuan Peppercorns. If you use regular peppercorn and want a bit of spiciness, you can add red or chipotle pepper flakes. 

Feel free to substitute regular string beans.
