Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and halve the baby potatoes. If they are on the larger side, cut them into quarters to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved potatoes, drained artichoke hearts, olive oil, kosher salt, cracked black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Zest the lemon into the bowl, then cut the lemon in half and squeeze its juice over the potato mixture. Be sure to remove any seeds.
Finely chop the garlic cloves and fresh rosemary, then add them to the bowl along with the thyme. Toss everything together to evenly coat the potatoes and artichokes.
Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the potatoes are in a single layer for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, use a spatula to flip the potatoes and artichokes for even browning.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender.
Remove from the oven and taste for seasoning, adding extra salt or pepper if needed.
Transfer the roasted lemon potatoes and artichokes to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm.
