3 russet potatoes, cut into bite-size pieces
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 small white onion, diced
Olive oil, to taste
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C) to get that perfect roast and crisp texture.
Prepare your vegetables: Dice the russet potatoes into bite-sized pieces, followed by the red bell pepper and white onion.
Transfer all chopped vegetables onto a large baking sheet.
Drizzle olive oil generously over the vegetables to help them roast and develop flavor.
Add dried rosemary, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything thoroughly to ensure each piece is evenly coated with seasoning.
Spread the vegetables out into a single, even layer so they roast and not steam.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, stirring and flipping every 10–15 minutes to achieve an even golden crisp on all sides.
Once cooked and nicely browned, remove from the oven and serve hot.
