Ingredients
Scale
2 lbs Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 lb carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). You need high heat for crispiness.
In a large bowl, combine the cut potatoes and carrots.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Pour the oil and herb mixture over the vegetables. Toss well until everything is evenly coated.
Spread the vegetables onto a large, rimmed baking sheet in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary to promote crisping.
Roast for 35 to 45 minutes, flipping the vegetables halfway through the cooking time.
The vegetables are done when the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges and the carrots are tender.
Serve immediately as a side dish for chicken, beef, or pork.
Notes
For maximum crispiness, ensure the vegetables are dry before tossing with oil.
If you prefer a stronger herb flavor, use 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary and 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme, chopped.
