Ingredients

  • 12 carrots
  • 3 tbsp good olive oil
  • 1 ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tbsp minced fresh dill or parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F.
  2. If carrots are too thick, cut them in half lengthwise, if not, leave whole. Slice the carrots diagonally in 1 ½ inch thick slices. (The carrots will shrink while cooking so make the slices big.) Toss them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Transfer to a sheet pan in 1 layer and roast in oven for 20 minutes, until browned and tender.
  3. Toss carrots with minced dill or parsley, season to taste and serve.

Recipe Notes

After cutting carrots place in a zipper storage bag, toss with oil, salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to cook, tossing carrots in bag to mix with marinade.
