Description
Crispy, caramelized, and bursting with flavor, this Garlic Herb Roasted Veggies recipe is a perfect side dish featuring baby potatoes, carrots, and green beans tossed in fragrant garlic and Italian herbs, then roasted to golden perfection.
Ingredients
Roasted Veggies
- 1 lb baby potatoes (red or gold), halved
- 1 cup baby carrots (or sliced regular carrots)
- 1 cup fresh green beans, trimmed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to get it hot and ready for roasting the vegetables to crispy, caramelized perfection.
- Prepare the Vegetables: Rinse the baby potatoes and cut them in half. Trim the ends of the green beans and, if not using baby carrots, slice your regular carrots into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
- Mix the Seasoning: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to form a flavorful herb-infused oil.
- Toss the Veggies: Add the halved potatoes, carrots, and green beans to the bowl with the seasoned oil. Toss thoroughly, making sure every vegetable piece is evenly coated with the garlic herb mixture.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated vegetables out in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet to ensure they roast evenly and get crispy edges.
- Roast the Vegetables: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through. Roast until the veggies are tender inside and caramelized on the outside.
- Check and Serve: Once roasted, remove the veggies from the oven, give them a final toss to mix any drippings, and serve immediately as a delicious, healthy side dish.
Notes
- For an extra boost of flavor, add freshly chopped parsley or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese before serving.
- To save time, you can prep the vegetables a day ahead and store them in the fridge before roasting.
- Feel free to swap out or add other vegetables like bell peppers or Brussels sprouts according to your preference.
- Ensure vegetables are cut into similar sizes for even cooking.
