Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb green beans trimmed and cut in half
- 2 T soy sauce use gluten-free if needed
- 3 tsp peanut oil adds a nutty flavor
- 2 tsp sesame oil provides richness and aroma
Instructions
- Start by washing your green beans thoroughly. Trim the ends and cut them in half to ensure they cook evenly. This also makes them easier to eat!
- In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, peanut oil, and sesame oil. Stir well until everything is nicely blended.
- Add the trimmed green beans to the bowl with the sauce. Toss until the beans are evenly coated. This step is crucial for infusing the flavor throughout.
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). A preheated air fryer ensures that your green beans cook evenly and get crispy.
- Place the coated green beans in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry for about 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking. Keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.
- Once the green beans are crispy and tender, remove them from the air fryer. Serve them hot as a side dish or enjoy them as a healthy snack. The flavors will be irresistible!
