Roasted Green Beans and Potatoes: the Best Simple ‘n Tasty Side Dish

‘Tis the season for… roasting! And roasting, we shall. Today, we’re making the most perfectly cooked green beans and potatoes—think tasty crunch, while still roasted with a touch of tenderness. The potatoes are soft and tender on the inside, roasted and just a bit crisp on the outside.

Let’s grab our finest, freshest green beans, our favorite potatoes, and head on to the kitchen. We’re getting ready for the holidays—side dish-style

The #1 Secret Ingredient

The secret ingredient for making the very best roasted potatoes and green beans? Soy sauce for just the green beans. Yep, you heard me.

Soy sauce gives an interesting subtle twist, another layer of saltiness that tastes so sophisticated in these green beans. It allows the green beans to have a distinct & delicious flavor while still complementing the roasted potatoes.

My mom taught me this trick growing up—just a splash while cooking leaves the green beans with a tasty other-level of umami. YUM.

Description

The perfect pairing for a tasty side dish: oven roasted green beans and potatoes. Beautifully roasted green beans paired with savory gems of tender potatoes with a crispy edges.


Ingredients

Scale

Tools Needed

  • baking sheet
  • tongs
  • food scale
  • measuring spoons

Roasted Potatoes

  • 1 lb. small or creamer potatoes
  • 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil or cooking oil of choice
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • A generous pinch of pepper

Roasted Green Beans

  • 1 lb. green beans
  • 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil or cooking oil of choice
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt or more to taste
  • A pinch of pepper
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce – I used lower sodium

Optional Topping

  • 2–3 sprigs of rosemary

Instructions

Roast Potatoes

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with lightly greased foil.
  • Wash and dry potatoes. No need to peel. Cut into ½-inch cubes, or ½-inch halves if using bite-sized creamer potatoes.
  • Add potato cubes into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with oil, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt and pepper to taste. Stir to coat evenly.
  • Pour potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread into an even layer, being careful not to pack the potatoes in too much, especially in the center of the sheet, where the heat is lowest. Bake for 15 minutes.

Roast Green Beans (with the Potatoes)

  • While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the green beans. Wash and dry green beans. Trim off ends and peel off strings if beans are not stringless.
  • Add green beans, oil, salt, pepper, and optionally, soy sauce to a large mixing bowl. Stir to coat green beans fully.
  • Carefully remove baking sheet from the oven. Using a heatproof spatula, flip potatoes to roast the opposite side.
  • Add seasoned green beans to the baking sheet. Spread into an even layer.
  • Bake for 15 more minutes, or until potatoes are fork tender and green beans are cooked as much as you’d like. Mine took 15 minutes for crispy, yet roasted green beans. You can tack on more time for softer green beans.

Finish Roasted Green Beans & Potatoes

  • Pour roasted green beans and potatoes into a serving dish. Optionally, top with a few sprigs of rosemary. Enjoy!
