Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1½ pounds small red potatoes halved
  • 1 pound fresh green beans trimmed
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash and halve the red potatoes, leaving the skin on for extra texture and nutrition.
  3. Trim the ends of the green beans and cut any extra long ones in half for even cooking.
  4. In a large bowl, toss the halved potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  5. Spread the seasoned potatoes on one side of the prepared baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, toss the green beans with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and red pepper flakes in the same bowl.
  7. Add the seasoned green beans to the other side of the baking sheet with the partially roasted potatoes.
  8. Continue roasting for 20-25 minutes until potatoes are golden and green beans are tender-crisp.
  9. Remove from oven and immediately drizzle with fresh lemon juice and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  10. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving hot as a delicious side dish.

Notes

For extra crispy potatoes, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes before roasting and pat completely dry. You can substitute baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes if red potatoes aren't available.
