Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold 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 fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cut potatoes and carrots.
  3. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil. Add the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary for crispier results.
  5. Roast for 35 to 45 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy and the carrots are tender.
  6. Serve immediately as a side dish for chicken, turkey, or beef.

Notes

  • For extra crispy potatoes, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before drying them thoroughly.
  • If you are making this ahead of time, you can chop the vegetables and store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before tossing with oil and seasoning and roasting.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten free and dairy free.
