Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 2 cups mixed bell peppers (red, yellow, orange), diced into 1-inch strips
- 3 cups Yukon gold or red potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks
Seasonings and Herbs
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (natural)
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Finishing Touch
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (natural)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and dice the bell peppers into roughly 1-inch strips and cut the potatoes into similarly sized chunks for even cooking.
- Toss with Seasonings: In a large bowl, combine diced potatoes and sliced bell peppers with olive oil (natural), minced garlic, chopped fresh rosemary and thyme, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), salt, and black pepper. Toss well so all pieces are evenly coated.
- Arrange on the Baking Tray: Spread the seasoned vegetable mixture in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring potatoes have enough space to crisp up without overlapping.
- Roast to Perfection: Place the tray in the oven and roast for 30 to 35 minutes, flipping the veggies halfway through for even browning. Peppers will soften and char slightly while potatoes become golden and crunchy.
- Final Touch with Lemon: Transfer roasted vegetables to a serving dish and drizzle with fresh lemon juice (natural). Toss gently to combine and serve warm.
Notes
- Cut vegetables evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
- Do not overcrowd the baking sheet to allow crisping.
- Use fresh herbs for vibrant flavors; dried can be used sparingly if necessary.
- Adjust seasoning during and after roasting for best taste.
- Serve immediately for optimal texture and warmth.
