Tips:

  • Choose Fresh Vegetables: Select firm and brightly colored asparagus, zucchini, and tomatoes for the best flavor and texture.
  • Trim and Cut Vegetables Uniformly: Trim the asparagus, cut the zucchini into 1-inch pieces, and halve the tomatoes. Cutting the vegetables uniformly ensures even cooking.
  • Toss Vegetables with Olive Oil and Seasonings: Before roasting, toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano. This helps enhance their flavor and make them crispy.
  • Roast at High Temperature: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and roast the vegetables for 15-20 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned. High heat helps caramelize the vegetables and bring out their natural sweetness.
  • Add Fresh Herbs and Parmesan Cheese: After roasting, sprinkle the vegetables with fresh chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese. These add a burst of flavor and elevate the dish.
