A simple and flavorful sheet pan recipe featuring crispy baby potatoes roasted with fresh herbs and tender spring vegetables, perfect for a quick and satisfying side dish or light meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes (red or gold), halved
  • 2 cups fresh spring vegetables (asparagus tips, snap peas, or green beans)
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried)
  • Zest of 1 medium lemon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and halve the baby potatoes. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Mix well to coat evenly.
  4. Spread the potatoes cut side down in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
  5. Roast the potatoes for 20 minutes without stirring.
  6. While the potatoes roast, trim and halve the spring vegetables. For asparagus, snap off woody ends; for green beans or snap peas, trim the tips.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven. Toss the spring vegetables with a drizzle of olive oil and lemon zest, then spread them around the potatoes on the pan.
  8. Flip the potatoes gently to brown the other side.
  9. Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 15–20 minutes until vegetables are tender but still crisp and potatoes are golden brown.
  10. Once out of the oven, sprinkle with additional fresh lemon zest and fresh thyme if desired before serving.
  11. Optional: If potatoes are not crispy enough, broil for 2-3 minutes watching carefully to avoid burning.

Notes

Pat potatoes dry to ensure crispiness. Avoid overcrowding the pan to prevent steaming. Flip potatoes halfway through roasting for even browning. Use fresh herbs for best flavor. Broil briefly if extra crispiness is desired. Oven reheating is preferred over microwave to maintain texture.
