Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Cut larger parsnips in half lengthwise to ensure even cooking. Slice parsnips on the diagonal into ¼-inch-thick pieces, aiming for consistent sizes. Place into a large bowl, drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and sprinkle with onion powder, garlic salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Spread the seasoned parsnips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren't overcrowded for optimal caramelization. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Roast in the preheated oven for 25 to 28 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the parsnips are lightly caramelized, tender, and slightly browned around the edges. (28 minutes)

05

Step

Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh parsley and lightly drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Serve immediately. (2 minutes)

For enhanced flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a sprig of fresh rosemary to the parsnips before roasting.
To prevent sticking, ensure the parsnips are well-coated with olive oil.
Roasting time may vary depending on the size and thickness of the parsnip slices. Check for doneness by piercing with a fork.
