Roasted Root Vegetables

Course Side Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large yam peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
  • 3 small red potatoes peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
  • 2 carrots peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 yellow onion peeled and quartered
  • 1 red bell pepper cut into 2 inch pieces
  • 5 cloves garlic sliced
  • 1 tsp dried thyme (or 1 Tbsp. fresh)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1-2 T olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a 13x9 pan with cooking spray.
  • Add all the vegetables to the pan.
  • Sprinkle with thyme and drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Make sure all the vegetables are lightly coated in olive oil. Roast for 30 minutes.
  • Remove from oven. Pour in the chicken broth and toss vegetables to coat. Return to oven and roast for another 20-30 minutes or until all the vegetables can easily be pierced with a fork.

Notes

What to serve with it:  This recipe is a great accompaniment to my Honey Mustard Chicken.  I think many other baked or roasted chicken recipes would work well with it also as long as the flavors complement.  I think it would also be great with a pork or turkey tenderloin.
