Cook this recipe
- sweet potatoes-2 1/2 lb
- red bell pepper-2 large
- yellow onion-1 large
- grape tomatoes-2 cups
- pitted green olives-3/4 cup
- lemon-1 large
- extra-virgin olive oil-1/4 cup
- fresh parsley-1/4 cup
- dried oregano-2 teaspoons
- garlic powder-1 teaspoon
- fine sea salt-1 teaspoon
- black pepper-1/2 teaspoon
Heat the oven to 425°F and prepare two 18-by-13-inch trays on upper and lower racks. Cut potatoes and peppers into 1-inch pieces, wedge onion, halve olives and prepare lemon and parsley.
Cut sweet potatoes on a steady cutting board with a sharp knife, keeping fingers clear of the blade.
In a large bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, red bell pepper, yellow onion, grape tomatoes, and green olives with olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper; toss until evenly coated.
Spread coated vegetables across both trays in single layers with space between pieces. Keep potato cut sides down where possible.
Roast until sweet potatoes are fully tender with browned edges and tomatoes soft and juicy, about 35–42 minutes. Stir and swap racks halfway; continue as needed and check both trays.
Use oven mitts when handling the hot sheet pan.
Keep the sheet pan stable when stirring to prevent hot vegetables and oil from sliding.
Rest for 2 minutes and let hot tomatoes and olives cool enough to eat before serving. Add all parsley and share the complete batch evenly.
Use oven mitts when removing the hot sheet pan from the oven.
Let the roast stand for 2 minutes before serving so bubbling tomato juices settle.
