Not only is it an incredibly easy process (all you really need is a sheet pan), it's an undeniably crowd-pleasing way to prepare a tasty and healthy side.

Roasted Root Vegetables With Balsamic-Maple Glaze Recipe

These vegetables are so good, they may upstage everything else on the table. The balsamic-maple sauce is particularly delicious (and smartly added at the end to keep all flavors and colors vibrant). Roasting the purple vegetables separately will also help keep all the colors looking their best.

Farro—a whole-grain hero—adds fiber and heft to this meatless main; here we cook it with the green beans to save time and cut down on cleanup. This also makes a stellar lunch; dress it just before serving to keep the arugula fresh.

Roasted Vegetable Baked Ziti Recipe

This hearty pasta bake is the ideal dish of cheesy comfort food for cooler weather. We love the depth of caramelized flavor roasted veggies bring to this dish; plus, and you can swap in your favorite vegetables to make your own perfect pan of baked ziti. In fact, this dish is also a delicious way to utilize leftover roasted vegetables you might have hanging out in the fridge. In order to keep the dish entirely vegetarian, be sure to double check the labels on your cheese (especially the Parmesan) to make sure you pick up a package that is free of rennet and vegetarian-friendly.

Roasted Spring Vegetables with Mustard-Sherry Vinaigrette

Roasted Spring Vegetables with Mustard-Sherry Vinaigrette Recipe

Vinaigrette is not just for salads! For a fresh pop of flavor, we drizzle roasted spring vegetables with one of our go-to vinaigrettes: sherry vinegar whisked with olive oil and grainy mustard. Roasting the vegetables in a hot oven for about 20 minutes is just the right amount of time to bring out their natural sugars without making them too soft. If you can find small salad turnips, try them in place of the radishes. Make a double batch of the vinaigrette to have on hand for a green salad later in the week.

Roasted Vegetable Plate with Herbed Dressing

Roasted Vegetable Plate with Herbed Dressing Recipe

Vegetables can be sparse in winter months when holiday braises, hearty stews, and centerpiece roasts tend to take over. This seasonal vegetable plate will help you stick to your calorie plan, and can be altered easily depending on what's available. Don't be scared of a hot oven—roasting the veggies at 500°F gets the job done quickly and gives the vegetables a nice golden color. Tarragon has an anise flavor similar to fennel; you can omit it or substitute sliced green onions or parsley for a fresh pop.

One-Pan Roasted Chicken and Root Vegetables

One-Pan Roasted Chicken and Root Vegetables Recipe

Cooking vegetables and chicken together in the same pan often leads to unevenly cooked chicken and greasy, soggy vegetables. To get the chicken and vegetables to cook at the same rate, we used chicken parts, which contain less overall fat than a whole chicken and don't smother the vegetables underneath, which would cause them to steam. To ensure that the delicate white meat stayed moist while the darker meat cooked through, we placed the chicken breasts in the center of the pan, with the thighs and drumsticks around the perimeter. A similar treatment for the vegetables-leafy Brussels sprouts in the middle, hardier potatoes and carrots on the outside-also proved effective.

We halve the chicken breasts crosswise for even cooking. Use Brussels sprouts no bigger than golf balls, as larger ones are often tough and woody.

Roasted Asparagus with Walnuts, Parmesan, and Cherry Tomatoes Recipe

Serve with grilled flank steak or chicken breasts, and you'll have a fantastic weeknight dinner. Use asparagus that are medium-thick for this recipe--not pencil-thin spears. If you'd like to try this with a raw tomato sauce (especially when the fruits are at peak sweetness), just decrease water to 1 tablespoon and process all sauce ingredients together. For a less expensive and equally savory alternative to Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, try sheep's milk pecorino Romano.

Pan-Roasted Radishes

Pan-Roasted Radishes Recipe

Ah, the radish. Its American history has it thin-sliced and tossed among mismatched vegetables and iceberg lettuce as an inconsequential splash of color. It's time to right generations of oversight of this marvelously delicious vegetable. Radishes of all kinds can stand up to fairly aggressive dry-heat cooking methods like pan roasting, as they contain plenty of water to help regulate their internal temperature during cooking. You will make this dish regularly, for the honor of radishes everywhere.

Farro Bowl with Curry-Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Brussels Sprouts Recipe

Mix up your weeknight dinner with this savory bowl made with tender, fluffy farro—a nutty, ancient wheat grain that is equally tasty when whipped into risottos or tossed into salads—and roasted vegetables made ever more flavorful with curry powder. The hearty grain bowl is finished with toasted pecans for a great crunch and a creamy dollop of tangy yogurt sauce to diversify the textures. While roasted Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes would be delicious seasoned with salt and pepper alone, the addition of garlic and curry powder adds a dynamic flavor palette that is needed to complement the neutral grain base and simple toppings. Overall, the result is a filling and healthy dinner option you can whip up in less than an hour. Even better, the farro can be prepared up to two days in advance. Just store it covered in the refrigerator, and then reheat before serving. We think this grain bowl would be wonderful topped with grilled or roasted chicken flavored with curry powder, garlic, salt, and pepper to add more protein if desired.

Couscous Pilaf with Roasted Carrots, Chicken, and Feta Recipe

Flavored with golden raisins, toasted almonds, and an ingeniously simple lemon-brown butter sauce, this fluffy couscous is delicious on its own, but roasted carrots and chicken turn it into a memorable one-bowl meal. There are countless ways to repurpose a rotisserie chicken, and this clever recipe is a delicious way to do so. The lemon-brown butter sauce pairs beautifully with all of the ingredients in this one-bowl meal. You’re picky eaters can enjoy all the parts separately, but it really taste even better together. We think that’s reason enough to try this one for dinner tonight. If you are short on time you can use baby carrots, which come ready to roast—there’s no chopping or peeling required. Yet another way to cut down on your time in the kitchen!

Crispy Oven-Fried Chicken Cutlets with Roasted Broccoli and Parmesan Cream Sauce Recipe

Even if you have made oven-fried chicken countless times before, this might become your new favorite recipe. The chicken is dredged in a flavorful mixture of melted butter and Dijon mustard before being coated in crushed cornflakes and panko, for maximum crunch. When paired with caramelized roasted broccoli and a smooth parmesan cream sauce. We upgraded a classic béchamel sauce (or white sauce) with the addition of Parmesan cheese and a touch of lemon juice for brightness. Any grated Parmesan cheese will work in this sauce, but the salty-sweet flavor of Parmigiano-Reggiano will really take it over the top. Try serving the sauce with the roasted broccoli for a fancy take on the usual steamed broccoli with cheese sauce. Have some fresh herbs on hand? Add a tablespoon of minced fresh herbs to the sauce along with the salt and pepper. Basil, thyme, parsley, or sage would be delicious additions. This is a winning dinner recipe for any night of the week.

We recommend buying the smallest turnips possible, but if you can only find regular-sized turnips, simply halve and quarter them.

A sweet and tangy vinaigrette made with apple cider vinegar and sorghum syrup makes these carrots incredibly flavorful. If you can’t find sorghum syrup, use an equal amount of honey or maple syrup. And be sure to choose small carrots. They will roast and caramelize more evenly and have more natural sweetness than larger ones.

Mild Broccolini is a crowd-pleasing vegetable; its longer stems give it a more elegant feel than regular broccoli. If you’re serving a more adventurous bunch, try swapping in broccoli rabe, broccoli’s pleasantly bitter, leafy cousin. Red pepper brings a touch of heat, and lemon zest adds a bright flavor boost. To prep, just trim the bottom inch or so from the stalks. Serve it with our Beef Tenderloin With Madeira-Dijon Sauce, pictured above.

Roasted Carrot and Parsnip Batons With Tahini Dip Recipe

Deep caramelization from roasting brings out the natural sweetness in carrots and parsnips. Try to cut the vegetables into the size we call for in step 2. If the pieces are too large or too long, they may cook unevenly or end up limp; if they’re too small, they will likely burn. You can make the dip a day or two ahead, but bring it to room temperature before serving for the best flavor.

Here’s proof that Brussels sprouts can be delicious without bacon. Sherry (or apple cider) vinegar lends complementary sweet-tart notes, and grainy mustard adds peppery tang. High-heat roasting gives the sprouts a little char and the faintest hint of smoky flavor. It’s a quick dish that yields fantastic results.

The mixture of red and yellow beets will add a pop of color to your dinner table.

Smoky Roasted Chickpeas Recipe

These crunchy chickpeas will serve you well as both a snack and a crunchy, protein- and fiber-rich topping for salads. They’ll stay crisp in an airtight container for up to a week; just be sure to cook them until they’re just shy of burning for the crunchiest results.

Roasted Carrots, Radishes, and Chickpeas

Roasted Carrots, Radishes, and Chickpeas Recipe

This is a lovely side dish that pairs with pretty much any protein—or serve it with a salad for a perfectly light spring dinner. Carrots and radishes are more flavorful in the spring, their true season, than any other time of year—the former have more intense flavor and the latter a sweeter, less pungent bite. Here, both get roasted with chickpeas, which cook to a crisp, dense texture. Just be sure to dry the chickpeas well first so they don’t steam.

These crispy, salty skillet potatoes are a fantastic side dish for any number of meals. However, we especially love them served with our Braised Octopus in Tomato Sauce.

Air Fryer Roasted Broccoli With Cheese Sauce

Air Fryer Roasted Broccoli With Cheese Sauce Recipe

Believe it or not, your air fryer has more than one superpower. In addition to delivering crispiness without loads of fat, it also delivers crunchy roasted broccoli that doesn’t turn that oh-so-unappealing army green color. And what’s broccoli without cheese sauce? This creamy delight is easy to make ahead—just reheat it right before serving. If you can’t find ají amarillo paste at your local store, get it on Amazon, or if you like, stir in harissa or a spicy salsa instead. For a complete meal, pair this side with our recipe for air fryer roasted salmon with fennel salad, pictured.

Roasted Carrots with Pine Nut Gremolata Recipe

Starting the carrots at a high temp gives them a beautifully browned exterior; finishing at a lower temp keeps them tender. You can sub sherry vinegar for the malt vinegar if you like. Pair the carrots with seared chicken or fish.

Coffee-Roasted Carrots

Coffee-Roasted Carrots Recipe

This is our take on San Francisco chef Daniel Patterson’s renowned dish of carrots roasted on whole coffee beans. For a lighter approach with spring carrots, we use just a little instant coffee and roast the carrots quickly in high heat. The carrots develop wonderfully subtle bittersweet flavor, though their springtime brightness shines through. Fennel pollen adds a hint of anise; you can find it on Amazon.

Roasted Chile-Garlic Broccoli Recipe

The bold flavors of chile paste and dark sesame oil call for pairing with a robust entrée like grilled salmon, tuna, or beef.
