Description

A delicious and healthy side dish of roasted red potatoes and asparagus seasoned with garlic, onion powder, and black pepper.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound 6 ounces red potatoes (cut into 3/4 inch chunks)
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt (divided)
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 garlic clove (minced)
  • 10 ounces asparagus spears

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the red potatoes, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, onion powder, black pepper, and minced garlic. Use a large spoon to toss until the potatoes are evenly coated in oil and seasoning.
  3. Dump the potatoes onto a sheet pan and make sure to scrape the excess oil and garlic out of the bowl and onto the potatoes. Use the spoon to spread the potatoes around evenly.
  4. Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast for 20 minutes.
  5. While the potatoes roast, cut the tough ends off of the asparagus spears, about one to two inches. Cut the remaining asparagus into 2 inch long pieces.
  6. Transfer the cut asparagus into the same bowl the potatoes were in. Add 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Stir well to coat the asparagus.
  7. Once twenty minutes is up, remove the sheet pan from the oven and add the asparagus to the pan. Use a hard thin-set spatula to scrape the potatoes off the pan and move them around evenly.
  8. Place the pan back in the oven and roast for 14 to 15 more minutes. Serve warm.

Notes

  • This dish can be served as a side with grilled chicken or fish.
  • Adjust the seasoning according to taste.
  • Make sure not to overcrowd the sheet pan for even roasting.
