Ingredients
- 1 pound Parsnips
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme leaves
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
Peel the parsnips and cut them into evenly sized sticks, approximately 2-3 inches in length and about 1/2 inch in thickness.
Step 3
Place the parsnip sticks into a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to ensure even coating.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the parsnips and toss again to distribute evenly.
Step 5
Arrange the parsnip sticks in a single layer on a large baking sheet, ensuring they are not too crowded to allow for even roasting.
Step 6
Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the tray and flip the parsnips to ensure even cooking on all sides.
Step 7
Return the parsnips to the oven and roast for an additional 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender.
Step 8
Once cooked, remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves for added aroma and flavor.
Step 9
Serve hot and enjoy as a delightful and keto-friendly side dish.
