What Kind of Potatoes and Veggies Work Best?

For potatoes, baby Yukon Golds or red potatoes are ideal thanks to their buttery texture and quick cooking time. You can also use Russet potatoes, but they might need a slightly longer roast.

When it comes to the vegetables, the real magic lies in variety. Think red bell peppers for sweetness, red onions for bite, carrots for heartiness, and broccoli for a pop of green. The key is chopping everything into uniform pieces so they roast evenly and develop that irresistible caramelization.

How To Make the Garlic Herb Roasted Potatoes and Veggies

Step 1: Prep the Oven and Veggies

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Wash and dry your vegetables, then chop everything into uniform, bite-sized pieces. This ensures even roasting and perfect caramelization.

Step 2: Season Everything Generously

Place the potatoes, carrots, bell pepper, broccoli, and red onion in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then add the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Toss until every piece is coated in the herb-garlic mixture.

Step 3: Arrange and Roast

Spread the seasoned veggies out on the baking sheet in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through. The edges should be golden and slightly crisp, with tender centers.

Step 4: Finish with Freshness

Remove from the oven and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the hot veggies. Serve immediately while warm and aromatic.
