Sarasota's Roasted Green Beans and Olives
- 2 lbs green beans (stem end trimmed)
- 1 cup kalamata olive, cut in half
- 2 large shallots, thin sliced
- 12 teaspoon red wine vinegar
- 12 teaspoon dried oregano
- 14 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 teaspoons olive oil (for roasting)
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 14 teaspoon pepper
- Beans -- Trim your beans and then toss in a bowl with 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Then on a baking sheet lined with foil, lay out your beans.
- Olives -- On a piece of foil, about 10x10, add the olives, shallots and 1/2 teaspoon olive oil and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
- Toss lightly and wrap up the foil like a little pouch.
- Set that on the baking sheet next to the green beans.
- Roast -- In a 400 degree oven middle shelf, cook for approximately 20 minutes.
- Now depending on your oven, they may take as little as 15 or as long as 25.
- Just until they get tender and then start to brown.
- Finishing -- Once the beans are done, remove them to a serving bowl, add the olives and shallots, red wine vinegar, oregano and toss well.
- Taste for seasoning, you may want to add a little extra salt and pepper, and you can even drizzle a little more olive oil on if you want.
- Serve -- Just toss everything well and if you want, you could add some crumbled feta cheese, but I like the green beans and olives just as is.
- ENJOY!
