Roasted Root Vegetables With Pancetta Recipes

Steps:

• Place 2 baking sheets in the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
• Cut all the vegetables into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Cut the onions through the base core to keep some of the layers in chunky pieces. Toss all the vegetables with garlic, olive oil and salt in large bowl. Season generously with pepper.
• Carefully remove the heated baking sheets from the oven, brush or drizzle with olive oil. Divide the vegetables evenly between the 2 pans, spreading them out to assure they don't steam while roasting. Roast the vegetables until tender and golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cut the fennel bulbs into 6 wedges each, cutting through the core to keep the wedges intact. Place on a sheet pan. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and place them on the pan with the fennel. Drizzle the olive oil on the vegetables, then sprinkle with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Toss with your hands.
• Roast the vegetables for 25 to 30 minutes, until the potatoes are tender, tossing once while cooking. Toss the string beans with the roasted vegetables and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the green vegetables are tender. Sprinkle on the Parmesan cheese and roast for another minute or two until the cheese melts. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the beet, carrot, onion, potatoes, garlic, and garbanzo beans into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Drizzle with the olive oil, then season with thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, stirring once midway through baking. Remove the baking dish from the oven, and stir in the wine. Return to the oven, and bake until the wine has mostly evaporated and the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes more. Stir in the beet greens, allowing them to wilt from the heat of the vegetables. Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Peel vegetables (optional) and cut them into 1- to 2-inch chunks, put them in a baking pan and toss with the oil and a sprinkling of salt and pepper.
• Put the vegetables in the oven and roast without stirring for 20 minutes, then check. If they look dry and are sticking to the pan, drizzle with more oil. Continue roasting, stirring or turning the vegetables once, for another 20 minutes or so. Stir in the herbs, then return the pan to the oven for another 20 to 40 minutes, until crisp. Remove from the oven. Garnish with rosemary or thyme.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Place the root vegetables and onion in a roasting pan.
• Toss the vegetables with the olive oil and salt to taste.
• Do not crowd the vegetables.
• Roast the mixture for a total of 45-50 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.
• After 30 minutes, scatter the garlic cloves in with the vegetables.
• Continue stirring every 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender and evenly browned.
• Before serving, add a sprinkling of fresh chopped herbs or balsamic vinegar, if you like for additional flavor.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare all vegetables as described above. Keep beets separately from the other vegetables. Toss with olive oil and pancetta, salt and pepper to taste. Place on a single layer on a cookie sheet. Roast in upper third of oven, stirring once halfway through roasting, until sprouts and carrots are brown on edges and tender, about 25 minutes total. Serve warm (mixing in beets in the serving dish).
