Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs small potatoes Yukon Gold or red potatoes, quartered
- 1 lb fresh green beans trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the correct temperature before roasting.
- Combine the quartered potatoes, trimmed green beans, olive oil, rosemary, thyme, and garlic powder in a large bowl.
- Season the vegetables generously with salt and black pepper, then toss everything together until well coated.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on one or two baking sheets to avoid overcrowding, which can cause steaming instead of roasting.
- Roast for 25-35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are tender and browned and the green beans are crisp-tender.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven once the vegetables are cooked to your desired tenderness.
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired, and serve the roasted vegetables immediately.
Notes
For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the other seasonings. Adjust roasting time based on your oven and desired crispness. If making a larger batch, use multiple baking sheets to ensure even roasting.
