Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a large baking sheet or roasting pan with aluminum foil. Wash, dry and trim the ends off the green beans. Snap or cut each bean in half, if desired. If you prefer, you can leave the beans whole. Place the green beans in a pile on prepared pan. Pour the olive oil over the beans and mix them around so they're evenly coated. Season to taste with the salt, lemon pepper, granulated garlic and crushed red pepper. Spread the beans out across the pan giving as much space between the individual beans as possible. Shake or measure out the balsamic vinegar over the beans. Bake for 10 minutes. Stir the beans and then bake for another 5-10 minutes. **NOTE: If you like your beans more crisp tender, you'll probably want to pull them out after 15 minutes. |
