Prep. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper. Trim green beans and slice carrots on the diagonal into ½-inch rounds.
Season. Add green beans and carrots to the pan. In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Drizzle vegetables with oil, sprinkle with seasoning mixture, and toss to coat evenly.
1 pound green beans, 4-5 large carrots, 2 tablespoons oil, 1½ teaspoons garlic powder, 1½ teaspoons onion powder, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Roast. Spread vegetables in a single layer (use two pans if needed). Roast for 30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until green beans are tender with lightly charred spots and carrots are tender.
Serve. Taste and adjust seasoning. Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy warm!
- Don't overcrowd! Spread veggies in a single layer for the best roasting. Use two sheet pans if your pan looks too full.
- For softer carrots: Roast the carrots alone for 10 minutes first, then add the green beans and continue roasting together for 25-30 minutes.
- Salt. This recipe uses Diamond Crystal kosher salt. If using Morton's or table salt, reduce by half.
- Variations: Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving, or toss with a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat. Top with toasted sliced almonds or parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
Storage
- Refrigerator: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat in a 400°F oven for 8-10 minutes or in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through.
- Freezing: We don't recommend freezing this recipe as the vegetables will lose their texture when thawed.
