Parmesan Garlic Roasted Edamame – need a new way to get your kids to eat their vegetables? These soy beans are roasted until crispy and coated in Parmesan cheese. Great for picky eaters!
Edamame seems to be a very under used vegetable, but it really a favorite at our house. It is super simple to make, here I am roasting it with a little bit of olive oil and seasoning. It gets slightly crispy, or super crispy if you want it that way. And is just a versatile and easy side dish.
Most of the time when people think of edamame, I think they imagine it in the shell, like you find at an Asian restaurant. And that is great, and I always have those in my freezer as well! But this roasted edamame is just something different and so easy!
I like to add edamame to my salads or stir-fry, so it is something I always have in my freezer. And this garlic edamame is a staple at our house with just about any main dish.
What You’ll Need

- Frozen Shelled Edamame
- Olive Oil
- Parmesan Cheese
- Garlic Salt
You really can get creative and season with whatever spices you prefer. I kept this pretty basic, so that it goes with just about anything.
WHAT IS EDAMAME?
Edamame are immature soy beans that are still in their pods. You often see them on the menu in Japanese restaurants still in the pod. You can also buy them already shelled like I do for this. Frozen edamame is easy to find with the rest of the frozen vegetables in the grocery store. I like to have a couple bags on hand at all times.
HOW TO COOK EDAMAME
This depends on if you are eating it in the shell or not. If you have them still in the shell, you just steam them for a few minutes until they are warm and then sprinkle with salt. We eat a lot of edamame this way in our house too, but my son is definitely partial to the roasted version.
How To Make Roasted Edamame
- start with a bag of frozen edamame that I leave mostly frozen – no need to thaw. Just coat with a little olive oil, garlic salt, and Parmesan cheese.
- Heat in a very hot oven until golden brown and crispy.
- Then serve immediately with just about any dinner you are making.
My family can be picky about vegetables, we all like different things. But this roasted edamame is one we can all agree on! Edamame is good source of soy protein, is rich in fiber, antioxidants and vitamin K. So it is a healthy side dish that is easy to make and goes with just about anything!
