A simple, flavorful side dish featuring roasted potatoes, carrots, and zucchini tossed with garlic and fresh herbs. Perfectly crispy and tender, this recipe is easy to prepare and a crowd-pleaser for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound baby red or Yukon gold potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into thick half-moons
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt to taste (kosher salt recommended)
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and dry the potatoes, carrots, and zucchini. Cut potatoes into halves or quarters depending on size. Peel and chunk carrots about 1 inch, and slice zucchini into thick half-moons.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cut potatoes, carrots, zucchini, minced garlic, olive oil, chopped rosemary, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together well to coat evenly.
  4. Spread the vegetable mixture in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure proper roasting.
  5. Roast in the oven for 25 minutes. Halfway through (around 12 minutes), toss or flip the veggies to promote even browning.
  6. Check for doneness: potatoes should be fork-tender and golden brown on edges, carrots soft but not mushy, and zucchini tender with caramelized spots.
  7. Remove from oven and drizzle with fresh lemon juice. Toss gently to combine.
  8. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the pan to avoid steaming the vegetables. Toss halfway through roasting for even browning. Use fresh herbs for best flavor. Pat vegetables dry before tossing with oil to ensure crispiness. Leftovers can be reheated in a 375°F oven or air fryer to regain crispiness; avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.
