Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 10 baby carrots, quartered lengthwise
  • 1 lb new potatoes, whole or halved depending on size
  • 10 radishes, halved
  • 1 large yellow bell pepper, chopped into strips

Seasonings and Oils

  • 3 tbsp olive oil (natural)
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven and Prepare Vegetables: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and chop the vegetables into uniform bite-sized pieces for even cooking. Trim the asparagus, quarter the baby carrots lengthwise, halve the radishes, chop the yellow bell pepper into strips, and leave new potatoes whole or halved depending on size.
  2. Toss with Olive Oil and Seasonings: In a large mixing bowl, combine all the prepared vegetables. Drizzle generously with olive oil (natural), add minced garlic, fresh thyme leaves, sea salt, black pepper, and lemon zest. Toss well so every piece is coated in a fragrant, flavorful layer.
  3. Arrange on a Baking Sheet: Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup. Avoid overcrowding to allow proper roasting and caramelization.
  4. Roast Until Golden and Tender: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes. Stir gently halfway through cooking to promote even browning. The vegetables should be tender with slightly crisp edges when done.
  5. Serve Warm and Enjoy: Remove from the oven and transfer the roasted vegetable medley to a serving dish. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon juice before serving immediately.

Notes

  • Cut vegetables into similar sizes to ensure even roasting without undercooking or burning.
  • Do not overcrowd the baking tray to maintain crispness instead of steaming the vegetables.
  • Use fresh thyme or any fresh herb for enhanced aroma and taste compared to dried versions.
  • Stir vegetables halfway through roasting to encourage even cooking and golden edges.
  • Serve the medley fresh and warm to fully enjoy the textures and flavors.
