Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 medium potatoes
- 3 large carrots
- 2 zucchinis
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
Finishing Ingredients:
- Salt
- Pepper
- Fresh parsley
Instructions
- Grab a large baking sheet and cover it with parchment paper. Heat your oven to a toasty 425°F.
- Slice 3 medium potatoes, 3 large carrots, and 2 zucchinis into similar-sized chunks so they cook evenly.
- Drizzle 3 tablespoons of olive oil over the chopped vegetables and sprinkle 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon each of dried rosemary and thyme, and ½ teaspoon paprika across the mix.
- Season generously with salt and pepper, then toss everything until each vegetable is perfectly coated.
- Spread your herbed vegetables across the baking sheet, ensuring no pieces overlap or crowd each other.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the vegetables halfway through to ensure golden edges on all sides.
- Check that your veggies are tender and have developed a light golden-brown color before removing from the oven.
- Chop some fresh parsley and scatter it over the roasted vegetables for a bright, fresh finish just before serving.
Notes
- Cut vegetables exactly the same size so everything cooks evenly and looks professional.
- Fresh herbs make a massive difference compared to dried, so grab rosemary or thyme from the garden if possible.
- Ceramic or cast iron baking sheets help create crispier vegetable edges than standard metal pans.
- When checking doneness, pierce carrots with a fork to ensure they’re soft but not mushy – they should have slight resistance.
