Charred Green Beans with Savory Spices

Master the art of cooking fresh green beans with this exquisite recipe. Green beans are delicately cooked with a blend of garlic and onion powders until they reach a tender-crisp texture and a subtly charred finish.

Ingredients

1 ½	fresh green beans, trimmed and snapped
¼	teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste
¼	teaspoon onion powder, or to taste
	salt and pepper to taste
3	tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

• 1. Begin by gathering all the necessary ingredients.
  2. In a stainless steel pot over medium-high heat, combine the fresh green beans, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cover and cook until the beans start to release their natural juices. Uncover and stir occasionally until the beans reach the desired tenderness.
  3. Once the beans and spices show signs of caramelization on the bottom of the pan, add the olive oil and turn off the heat. Cover the pot and allow the flavors to meld for a few minutes.
  4. Scrape the bottom of the pan gently to incorporate the caramelized spices. The green beans should have a rich, caramel hue without being overly charred.
