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

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.
Spread the potatoes in an even layer onto the baking sheet and bake them in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
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.
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.
Once they are done, remove them from the oven and serve hot with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives.
