Rinse off your green beans (1 pound) and cut off the stems.
In a medium mixing bowl, add your green beans and drizzle olive oil (1 tbsp)over. Then, sprinkle sea salt (1 teaspoon), onion powder (1 teaspoon), garlic powder (1 teaspoon), and ground pepper (1 teaspoon) on top. You can use a pastry brush to spread the olive oil evenly over the green beans, or you can also use an olive oil spray.
Using your hands, mix well the green beans. Make sure that all the green beans are covered with a bit of oil and the seasoning powders.
Grab and place the green beans inside the air fryer basket using kitchen tongs.
Cook the green beans at 350ºF for 8 minutes, tossing the basket halfway through.
Use kitchen tongs to serve the green beans with a drizzle of lemon juice. Enjoy!
