Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lb Turnips
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Dried thyme
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and cut the turnips into 1-inch cubes. Ensure the pieces are roughly the same size to promote even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
Add the turnip cubes into the bowl and toss them until they are well coated with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned turnips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure there is space between the pieces for optimal crispiness.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and toss the turnips. This promotes even browning.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue roasting for an additional 20 minutes, or until the turnips are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Sprinkle the roasted turnips with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve immediately as a delicious, keto-friendly side dish.
