Ingredients

  • 1 12-ounce package frozen shelled edamame, thawed
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Few cracks of freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
  • Zest of 1 medium-sized lemon (about 1 tablespoon)

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 400° F.
  • Open the bag of edamame. Rinse under warm water to remove any remnant ice, and drain. Spread onto a kitchen towel or paper towels and pat dry (they won't crisp up if still wet).
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the edamame and toss. Sprinkle on Parmesan and lemon zest and toss again to combine.
  • Spread the edamame on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, then remove to give them a good mix so that everything cooks evenly. Cook for another 10 to 15 minutes, making sure they don't burn. Let them cool a bit before enjoying on their own or in a salad. Store in an airtight container.
