These green beans are the kind of side dish that disappears from the platter before you even sit down. A screaming-hot sheet pan is the secret weapon here ā it blasts the beans with direct heat so they blister and char at the edges instead of turning soft and soggy. The smoked paprika coats every bean in a deep, earthy warmth, while a hit of cayenne and a finishing squeeze of lemon keep things lively and bright. Garlic-infused oil does the heavy lifting on flavor without any fuss, and the whole thing comes together with ingredients that are naturally free of fermented or yeast-derived additives ā no hidden surprises. For anyone navigating a yeast-free approach, simple vegetable dishes like this can feel like a breath of fresh air compared to scanning labels on sauces and seasonings. The scallion greens scattered on top add a pop of color and a mild oniony bite that pulls the whole dish together. Serve them straight from the oven while the edges are still crackling ā they are absolutely worth eating immediately.

Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 450°F (230°C). Place a large sheet pan in the oven while it preheats ā a hot pan helps the beans blister rather than steam.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the trimmed green beans with the garlic-infused oil, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne, if using, until every bean is evenly coated.
