How to Make Garlic Herb Roasted Potatoes and Veggies (45-Minutes)
- Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- In a large bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes, broccoli florets, baby carrots, and diced red bell pepper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, rosemary, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until fragrant.
- Pour the garlic herb oil mixture over the potatoes and veggies. Toss everything thoroughly so all pieces are evenly coated.
- Spread the vegetables out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring once halfway through. The potatoes should be golden and crispy on the edges, and the vegetables tender.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for a bright finish.
- Serve warm as a delicious side or a light main dish. Enjoy the crisp textures and herbaceous garlic flavor!
Tips for the Best Results
- Use baby Yukon gold potatoes for their creamy texture and quicker roasting time.
- Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet; give veggies enough space to roast properly and get crispy.
- Stir halfway through cooking to promote even browning on all sides.
- Adjust herbs to your preference—fresh rosemary or thyme can be swapped in for dried.
- If you like it extra garlicky, add a couple more cloves of minced garlic to the oil mixture.
Storage and Reheating
Store any leftover garlic herb roasted potatoes and veggies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To keep the crispy texture, avoid covering while still warm to prevent steam buildup.
For reheating, spread leftovers on a baking sheet and warm in a 375°F oven for 10-15 minutes until heated through and crispy again. You can also reheat in a skillet over medium heat with a splash of olive oil.

No need to peel baby Yukon gold potatoes; their thin skin is tender and adds great texture and nutrients after roasting.
