Step 1: Preheat Your Oven and Prepare the Baking Sheet

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). You want it nice and hot so your potatoes can get perfectly crispy. While the oven is heating up, grab a large baking sheet and line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup (or you can just grease it lightly with a bit of olive oil). This will be the perfect surface to roast your veggies.

Step 2: Prep the Potatoes

Cut your baby potatoes into quarters. You want them all roughly the same size so they cook evenly. If you’re using larger potatoes, just cut them into bite-sized chunks. Drizzle the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and season them with garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Toss them until they’re evenly coated. Make sure the seasoning gets into all the nooks and crannies of the potatoes.

Step 3: Roast the Potatoes

Spread the potatoes out evenly on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they’re not crowded. This is key to getting them crispy! Pop them into the oven and roast for about 25 minutes, or until they’re golden and crispy on the edges, turning them halfway through for even roasting. Keep an eye on them, as oven times can vary.

Step 4: Prep the Green Beans

While the potatoes are roasting, prep your green beans. If you haven’t already, trim the ends off the green beans and give them a rinse under cold water. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any moisture (this helps them crisp up in the oven). Toss the green beans with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 5: Add the Green Beans to the Oven

Once the potatoes are golden and crispy, it’s time to add the green beans. Arrange them around the potatoes on the same baking sheet (or you can use a separate sheet if you need more space). Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast the green beans for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until they’re tender and slightly crispy on the edges.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Once the potatoes and green beans are done roasting, remove them from the oven. Give them a quick taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. For a final touch, sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley. This adds a little pop of color and a fresh flavor that makes it even more irresistible.

Serve your roasted potatoes and green beans immediately, and get ready for the compliments to roll in.
