Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 pound Baby potatoes (halved)
- 2 medium Carrots (sliced)
- 1 medium Zucchini (sliced)
Seasonings & Oil
- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil (for drizzling)
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper
Garnish (Optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting the vegetables.
- Combine Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes, sliced carrots, and sliced zucchini.
- Add Seasonings: Add the minced garlic, olive oil, dried thyme, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss everything gently until the vegetables are evenly coated with the seasonings and oil.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
- Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to promote even cooking and browning.
- Cool and Garnish: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the vegetables cool for a few minutes. Optionally, sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the top before serving for added color and flavor.
Notes
- You can substitute the fresh parsley garnish with other fresh herbs like cilantro or basil for a different flavor profile.
- For a crisper texture, ensure vegetables are spread in a single layer without overcrowding the baking sheet.
- Adjust seasoning quantities to your personal taste preferences, especially the salt and pepper.
- This recipe pairs well with grilled meats or can be served as a standalone vegetarian main.
