Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb carrots
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 0.5 tsp dried rosemary
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 cup vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
Peel the carrots and cut them into thin, diagonal slices (about 1/4-inch thick). Set aside.
Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh parsley. Keep them ready for later use.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the heated oil and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and toss them to coat evenly in the oil and garlic.
Sprinkle the dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper over the carrots, and stir to distribute the seasonings.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring it to a simmer. Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to medium-low.
Let the carrots cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender but not mushy and most of the liquid has evaporated.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the lemon juice.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious Carrots Provencal!
