Wash and Dry

Of course, you’ll want to thoroughly rinse your veggies before cooking them to get off any dirt, but you’ll also want to make sure you dry them completely afterward. If you don’t, the leftover moisture could end up steaming the veggies in the oven instead of roasting them.

Embrace Sameness

In order to make sure that all of your veggies come out the same level of perfect, fork-soft done, you’ll want to make sure you chop them up into uniform pieces.

Don’t Overcrowd

Another way to avoid accidentally steaming your veggies in the oven instead of roasting them is to be careful not to overcrowd your vegetables on your baking sheet. If you find that you can’t fit all of the veggies onto a single sheet without them getting too close for comfort, just go ahead and use another one.

Technique

If your plan is to roast a whole chicken, first clean it out. Then, season it with salt it all over, about 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt per pound of meat. Then, put it onto a sheet tray and put it into the fridge uncovered for at least 1 day, even 2 days before you cook it.

The reason you need so much time is that the salt will dry out the skin and make it super crispy and brown, as well as draw out the juices from the meat and it needs time to reabsorb those juices so you have a juicy end product.

Other Ingredients

If you’re roasting another type of meat or a smaller ingredient than a whole chicken, follow the same formula but give the meat only 6 hours or so to sit in the salt.
