Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them.
  • Trim the beans: Cut off the ends of the beans and remove any strings.
  • Blanch the beans: This helps to preserve their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Drain the beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Prepare the breading: In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Dredge the beans in the breading: Working in batches, coat the beans in the breading mixture. Make sure the beans are evenly coated.
  • Fry the beans: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat the pan. Working in batches, fry the beans until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Drain the beans on paper towels.
  • Serve immediately: Breaded green beans are best served hot and crispy. You can serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or honey mustard.

Conclusion:

Breaded green beans are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy, flavorful, and sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a new way to prepare green beans, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
