Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 3 cups baby potatoes, halved
- 2 large carrots, peeled and sliced
- 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into half-moons
Herb and Oil Mixture
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Garnish
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
- Prepare vegetables: Combine the halved baby potatoes, peeled and sliced carrots, and sliced zucchini in a large mixing bowl, ensuring an even mix.
- Make herb oil mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, rosemary, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined to create a flavorful herb-infused oil.
- Toss vegetables with herbs: Pour the herbed oil mixture over the mixed vegetables and toss thoroughly to coat all pieces evenly with the seasoning.
- Arrange on baking sheet: Spread the coated vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to allow for even roasting and crisping.
- Roast: Roast in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, tossing the vegetables once halfway through the cooking time to ensure they brown evenly and become fork-tender.
- Garnish and serve: Optional – sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the roasted vegetables for added color and freshness. Serve warm as a flavorful side dish.
Notes
- Ensure vegetables are cut into uniform sizes for even cooking.
- Tossing halfway through roasting helps achieve a crispy texture on all sides.
- You can substitute fresh herbs if available, adjusting quantities accordingly.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes to the herb mixture.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven to maintain crispiness.
