2 tablespoons tahini
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 pound green beans, trimmed
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1. Preheat the oven to 450 F and set a rack to the top position. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, oil, vinegar, tahini, sesame seeds and red pepper flakes. Add the green beans and toss until evenly coated. Season with salt and black pepper.
3. Spread the beans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast, tossing occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.
