Sarasota's Roasted Green Beans and Olives

1. 1

   Beans -- Trim your beans and then toss in a bowl with 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil, salt and pepper.

2. 2

   Then on a baking sheet lined with foil, lay out your beans.

3. 3

   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.

4. 4

   Toss lightly and wrap up the foil like a little pouch.

5. 5

   Set that on the baking sheet next to the green beans.

6. 6

   Roast -- In a 400 degree oven middle shelf, cook for approximately 20 minutes.

7. 7

   Now depending on your oven, they may take as little as 15 or as long as 25.

8. 8

   Just until they get tender and then start to brown.

9. 9

   Finishing -- Once the beans are done, remove them to a serving bowl, add the olives and shallots, red wine vinegar, oregano and toss well.

10. 10

    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.

11. 11

    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!
