Adapted slightly from Bon Appetit Nov/07. They used lemon, i had lime and enjoy the different taste with them. You can use lemon or orange. Ingredients:
nonstick vegetable oil cooking spray |
2 lbs green beans, trimmed |
1 onion, peeled, cut into 8 wedges |
6 sprigs fresh marjoram |
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
coarse kosher salt |
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice |
1 teaspoon packed finely grated lime peel |
1/2 cup coarsely chopped marcona almonds or 1/2 cup roasted regular almonds |
Directions:
1. Position 1 rack in top third and 1 rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 450°F.
2. Spray 2 large rimmed baking sheets with nonstick spray. Combine green beans, onion wedges, and marjoram in large bowl. Drizzle with oil, then sprinkle with coarse kosher salt and pepper. Toss; divide between prepared sheets.
3. Roast vegetables 15 minutes. Reverse sheets. Continue to roast until beans are tender and beginning to brown in spots, about 10 minutes longer.
4. Transfer vegetables to bowl. Add lime juice, grated lime peel, and half of chopped almonds. Toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with remaining almonds.
