Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 4 large carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
- 2 medium zucchinis, sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
Seasoning and Garnish
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the vegetables evenly.
- Prepare Vegetables: In a large bowl, combine the peeled and chunked potatoes, peeled and chunked carrots, sliced zucchinis, and minced garlic, ensuring all ingredients are ready for seasoning.
- Season Vegetables: Drizzle the olive oil over the mixed vegetables. Sprinkle the dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper over them. Toss thoroughly until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
- Roast Vegetables: Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place the sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even browning and tenderness.
- Serve: Once the vegetables are tender and golden brown, remove them from the oven. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve hot for a flavorful and nutritious side dish.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to allow the vegetables to roast evenly.
- You can substitute fresh herbs for dried herbs but reduce the quantity by half as fresh herbs are more potent.
- Feel free to add other root vegetables like parsnips or sweet potatoes to vary the flavors.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To reheat, warm in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until heated through to retain crispness.
