Main Ingredients

• Potatoes. You can use any kind of potato that you wish, so Yukon gold, red, or russet will all work here.

• Garlic.
• Seasonings. Salt, pepper, paprika, and dried Italian herbs. Or you can add any of your favorites to make this dish even more to your tastes.

How To Make Roasted Green Beans With Potatoes

1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes. Place them in a medium mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian herbs to the potatoes and stir until all of the potatoes are coated with the mixture.

2. Empty the potatoes from the bowl onto a baking sheet, spreading them out evenly for better cooking. Place them in the oven and bake for 15 minutes at 400°F.

3. While the potatoes are cooking, take the mixing bowl (no need to wash it after the potatoes) and add the green beans. Add the olive oil, garlic, and salt, then stir them in until the beans are evenly coated.

4. Take the potatoes out of the oven and add the green beans on top of them. Spread the beans out as well, again for even cooking. Bake the pan of potatoes and green beans for another 25 minutes. Then, they are ready to serve.

Helpful Tips & Tricks

Cut the potatoes evenly. Make sure that when you are cubing the potatoes, they are of equal size. This is to avoid uneven cooking, with some smaller pieces overdone while other larger ones are still hard. So, make sure the cubes are uniform in size.

Nip the ends of the green beans. Whenever you work with fresh green beans, you will need to pinch or cut off the tip and tail of the bean. Using a knife gives the beans a more consistent shape, so I suggest doing that.

Season to taste. This recipe is delicious, but if you have a favorite seasoning, go ahead and add some! And you can adjust the salt to your personal preference.

Use a non-stick baking sheet. This is the best pan to use for roasting these Green Beans and Potatoes because it will prevent the vegetables from sticking while cooking.
