Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and peel the parsnips. Trim both ends and cut them into evenly sized sticks, about 1/2-inch thick.
Place the parsnip sticks in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the parsnips, ensuring they are well-coated.
Season the parsnips with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Add the finely chopped fresh rosemary and toss everything together until the seasoning and herbs are distributed evenly.
Spread the seasoned parsnips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer to ensure they roast evenly.
Roast the parsnips in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until they are golden-brown and tender, turning them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.
Remove the roasted parsnips from the oven and drizzle with fresh lemon juice for brightness and a touch of acidity.
Serve warm as a delightful side dish or a wholesome snack. Enjoy your soy-free perfectly roasted parsnips!
