Ingredients
- 2 large Turnips
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Peel the turnips and cut them into small cubes, approximately 1/2 inch in size, to ensure even cooking.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the turnip cubes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat the turnips evenly with the seasoning and oil.
Step 4
Spread the seasoned turnip cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure that each piece has some space around it for better crisping.
Step 5
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Flip the turnips halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning on all sides.
Step 6
Check for doneness by inserting a fork into a few larger pieces; they should be tender on the inside and crispy on the outside.
Step 7
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Step 8
Serve immediately as a delightful low-carb side dish with your favorite main course.
