Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining herb mixture and minced garlic. Toss everything to ensure it is evenly coated.
- Final Baking Phase: Spread the ingredients out evenly on the baking sheet. Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the kielbasa is nicely browned.
