Ingredients
  

1 pound radishes, trimmed and halved

3 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1 teaspoon sea salt (adjust to taste)

½ teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground is best)

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Juice of 1 lemon (optional, for brightness)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to make cleanup easier.

    Prepare the Radishes: In a large mixing bowl, add the halved radishes. This will help them roast evenly and get that beautiful caramelization.

      Mix the Seasoning: In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, sea salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well mixed and fragrant.

        Coat the Radishes: Pour the olive oil mixture over the radishes. Toss everything together until the radishes are evenly coated with the seasoning blend.

          Spread on the Baking Sheet: Transfer the radishes to the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out in a single layer to ensure they roast properly. Avoid overcrowding them to promote even browning.

            Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast the radishes for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and lightly browned. Halfway through, give them a stir for even cooking.

              Garnish and Serve: Once they are done roasting, remove them from the oven. If desired, squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the top to add brightness. Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
