Roasted Carrots

Recipe #65427 | 30 min | 10 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Laura Leigh

Really easy, really simple, and really yummy. You'll never go back to boiled carrots again! From Ina Garten/Barefoot Contessa on foodtv.com. Sometimes I leave out the dill/parsley.

Posted on: Jun 24, 2003

Ingredients

  • 12 carrot
  • tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • tablespoons minced fresh dill or parsley
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
    2. 2
      If the carrots are thick, cut them in half lengthwise; if not, leave whole.
    3. 3
      Slice the carrots diagonally in 1 1/2-inch-thick slices.
    4. 4
      (The carrots will shrink while cooking so make the slices big.) Toss them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper.
    5. 5
      Transfer to a sheet pan in 1 layer and roast in the oven for 20 minutes, until browned and tender.
    6. 6
      Toss the carrots with minced dill or parsley, season to taste, and serve.

    These were really good and easy to make. I followed the recipe as written other then I used seasoning salt as I couldn't find my kosher salt and didn't add the dill or parsley. I also used whole baby carrots and left them whole. I also cooked these on the grill. Great way to cook carrots, everyone enjoyed them.

    I used baby carrots and just threw them in whole. I did, however, find that they needed an extra 10 minutes. They came out still slightly crunchy though, which is how we like them. Very sweet and well flavoured! A great healthy side dish.

    Very pleased with this recipe. I left the dill out (not my favorite) and the carrots were wonderful! I thought I was going to have to slap my 14 year old sons hand to keep him out of the carrots before dinner so the rest of us could have some. Thank you so much! If using a glass pan, I would suggest using a non-stick spray to make cleanup easier.

    One of our favorites. A summertime standby. I really think the dill and the salt make this dish. If you want to make this dish even simpler (hard to do) use a bag of pre-washed/peeled baby carrots instead. In addition to saving time, it seems to minimize the "shrinking" as well.
