Now this is an unexpected happy hour snack or side dish. Swap in your favorite dressing for the marinara or go dip-less. The crunch and spice stands on its own.

Cooking spray 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed ½ cup panko breadcrumbs 2 tbsp grated pecorino 1½ tsp garlic powder ½ tsp dried oregano ½ tsp fresh lemon zest ½ tsp salt 1 egg, beaten 1 tbsp flour ¾ cup marinara sauce 1. Rinse the green beans and drain well. Pat the green beans dry.

2. In a shallow baking dish, combine the panko, cheese, garlic powder, oregano, lemon zest, and salt. In a second shallow dish, add the egg. In a third shallow dish, add the flour.

3. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Working in batches (to avoid overcrowding the air-fryer basket), roll the green beans in the flour, then dip in the egg, and then roll in the panko until coated. Spray the green beans with cooking spray. Cook the green beans in the air fryer until crispy and browned, about 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining green beans. Serve the green beans with the marinara.

WW COACH TIP

Don’t forget to preheat your air fryer! Three minutes is all it takes. You’ll help speed up the cooking process and mazimize crispiness. Also important, don’t crowd the food. That means cooking in small batches so there’s plentyof room

for the air to circulate and the food to get crispy all over.—Coach Favin
