    Ingredients for roasted potatoes and green beans with labels over each ingredient.

    Ingredients you will need

    This healthy side dish only requires 6 simple ingredients that you probably already have!

    • Gold mini potatoes – Or you can use regular-size potatoes and just cut them into smaller pieces, Fingerling potatoes will also work, although I find that they take a bit longer to cook. 
    • Green beans – fresh green beans are essential in this recipe. Frozen or canned green beans will not work.
    • Olive oil – you could also use ghee, melted butter, or avocado oil. 
    • Seasoning – Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, pepper, or whatever your favorite seasoning blend is. 

    How to make roasted green beans and potatoes

    Round glass bowl filled with cut gold baby potatoes with seasoning on them.
    Prepare the potatoes
    Baking sheet lined with brown parchment paper with raw seasoned cut baby yellow potatoes spread on it.
    Cook the potatoes
    Round glass bowl filled with raw, cut, seasoned green beans.
    Prepare the green beans
    Sheet pan filled with cooked potatoes and green beans.
    Add the green beans
    Large baking pan filled with roasted baby potatoes and green beans with a wooden spoon on the baking sheet and a striped towel in front of it.
    Cook and serve!
    1. Prepare the potatoes. Cut and season the potatoes with olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
    2. Cook the potatoes. Spread the potatoes in an even layer onto the baking sheet and bake at 425 degrees F in a preheated oven for 15 minutes. 
    3. Prepare the green beans. In the meantime, season the green beans with the remaining olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
    4. Add the green beans. Once the potatoes are ready, remove them from the oven and spread the green beans on the pan with the potatoes in an even layer and bake for 20 more minutes, until the potatoes and green beans are golden and slightly crispy around the edges, 
    5. Serve. Serve, topped with fresh chopped parsley or chives. This side dish is best if eaten right away. 

    Time-saving tip! Buy pre-cut green beans that you can find at most grocery stores. Or cut them in advance and store them in the fridge for up to 2 days before you make this recipe.

    Tips for Success

    • Cut the potatoes into similar size pieces for more even cooking. This is important so you don’t end up with some perfectly crispy potatoes and some that are not crispy enough. 
    • Use a larger baking sheet. I used a 26×18-inch baking sheet and it was a perfect size. I lined it with parchment paper for easier clean-up.
    • Season and cook the potatoes and green beans separately. Since you are cooking them at different times in the beginning it is just easier to separate them. This is because potatoes just take longer to cook than green beans do. 
    • Make it ahead. You can cut and season the potatoes and green beans and store them separately in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a few hours before making this recipe.

    Note: cut, unseasoned potatoes can be stored in a container submerged in water in the fridge for up to 24 hours but no longer than that or they will lose their structure and become soggy.

    Ways to serve green beans and potatoes

    • Chicken – serve them as a side dish with any chicken such as chicken parmesan, chicken nuggets, popcorn chicken, or chicken breast.
    • Pork – try it with some juicy pork tenderloin, or pork loin, or make it a little fancier and serve it with stuffed pork tenderloin.
    • Salmon – make it a complete meal and pair it with some cajun salmon or these delicious air fryer salmon patties!
    • With eggs – my family loves this recipe served with some eggs for breakfast! It may seem odd to have green beans with breakfast but it is actually delicious!

    Storing and reheating tips

    • To store: you can store roasted green beans and potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
    • To reheat: easily reheat portions in the microwave or in the oven at 375 degrees F until warmed through.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Do I need to boil potatoes before roasting them?

    This step is not necessary but for extra crispy potatoes, you can par-boil them for a few minutes before you season and cook them.

    Can I use frozen or canned green beans?

    This recipe was created using fresh green beans. Frozen or canned green beans will not work!

    Why are my potatoes not crispy?

    In order for potatoes to get crispy in the oven, you need to cook them at a higher temperature for the right amount of time. Ovens do vary so you may need to increase the temperature of your oven and cook them slightly longer if they are not crispy enough.

    Can I use other types of potatoes in this recipe?

    Yes, you can! Yukon gold potatoes, fingerling potatoes, or red potatoes will all work in this recipe. The key is to cut them into the same size pieces so they all cook evenly. I like to use baby potatoes since they require less chopping, and I find that they are more flavorful.

    Description

    This easy roasted green beans and potatoes recipe can be made quickly with only 6 simple ingredients. It is packed with so much flavor and nutrition and it goes great with everything from chicken to fish. Plus, it is vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free.


    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1 pound baby gold potatoes
    • 3 tablespoons olive oil – divided
    • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
    • 2 teaspoons garlic powder – divided
    • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 1 pound fresh green beans – with the stems cut off

    Instructions

    1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut the potatoes into even size pieces (about 1-1.5 inches) and place them into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Drizzle them with 2 tablespoons olive oil and season them with 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of black pepper. Toss to coat.
    2. Spread the potatoes in an even layer onto the baking sheet and bake them in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
    3. Meanwhile, you can prepare the green beans. Add the green beans to the same bowl you seasoned the potatoes in. Drizzle them with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season them with 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
    4. Once the potatoes are ready, remove them from the oven and add the green beans. I like to place the green beans in between the potatoes in the pan. Return the pan to the oven and continue cooking the green beans and potatoes for 15-20 more minutes until the green beans are tender and the potatoes are nice and golden and crispy.
    5. Once they are done, remove them from the oven and serve hot with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives.
