Ingredients
- 1 pound green beans, trimmed
- 1 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for serving
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
- 1 small clove garlic, finely grated
- Finely grated zest from 1/2 lemon
- 3 tablespoons roasted sliced almonds
Instructions
- Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 375 degrees F. Toss the green beans, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper in a large bowl until evenly combined. Transfer to the air-fryer basket and air-fry the green beans, tossing halfway through, until tender and blistered in spots, about 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, stir the parsley, garlic, lemon zest, 1/8 teaspoon salt and a couple grinds of pepper together in a small bowl until combined. Stir in the toasted almonds.
- Place the green beans on a serving platter, top with the gremolata mixture and drizzle lightly with more olive oil.

Reviews
Good recipe, though check for doneness early; my beans were done at 6 minutes (I made enough for one).
Used cilantro instead of parsley—delicious! The entire family loved the beans, even the children (10, 8).
Couldn’t be any easier than this.
Delicious! Made it as a side for t-day. was delicious! Will make again with another meal, make with steak next!
Super easy and fast! A great way to free up oven real estate for Thanksgiving.
My wife is not fond of mushrooms which made the traditional green bean casserole a nogo for Thanksgiving. I went with this and it was simple and great. Will make again.
Fantastic
