Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped potatoes, sliced carrots, and cut zucchini.
- Add the minced garlic, olive oil, chopped fresh rosemary, chopped fresh thyme, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper to the vegetables.
- Toss everything together thoroughly until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings. Make sure the garlic and herbs are distributed.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding, as this will steam the vegetables instead of roasting them to a crisp.
- Roast for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender, golden brown, and slightly caramelized. The potatoes should be fork-tender and the carrots nicely softened.
- Once cooked, remove from the oven. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired, before serving hot.
