3 tablespoons olive oil (or your preferred cooking oil)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Ingredients:
Peel and thinly slice the potatoes and onions. Try to make the slices as uniform as possible for even cooking.
Season the Vegetables:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced potatoes and onions.
Add the olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Toss everything together until the potatoes and onions are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Bake the Dish:
Spread the seasoned potatoes and onions in a single layer on a large baking sheet or in a baking dish.
Ensure the vegetables are spread out to allow for even roasting and to prevent steaming.
Roast in the Oven:
Place the baking sheet or dish in the preheated oven.
Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and golden brown. Stir the potatoes and onions halfway through cooking to ensure they cook evenly.
Serve:
Once the potatoes and onions are cooked to your liking, remove them from the oven.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired.
Serve hot as a side dish or a main course.
Tips:
Variations: You can add other vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or zucchini to the mix for more variety.
Cheese Substitute: For a cheesy flavor, sprinkle some nutritional yeast over the potatoes and onions before baking.
Spice It Up: Add a pinch of chili flakes or cayenne pepper for a bit of heat.
