Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and position the rack in the center. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Roast the green beans in the oven until lightly charred, about 15 minutes.

While the green beans are roasting, in a large bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper to create the dressing.
5
Add the halved cherry tomatoes, chopped basil, halved olives, quartered artichoke hearts, and drained chickpeas to the bowl with the dressing. Toss to combine.
6
Once the green beans are roasted, let them cool for a few minutes, then add them to the salad. Add the crumbled feta cheese and toss gently to mix.

Sprinkle the sliced almonds on top of the salad just before serving.

To serve, divide the salad among plates and enjoy!
