Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Carrots
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Wash and peel the carrots. Cut them into evenly sized sticks, about 2 inches long and 1/2 inch thick for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the carrot sticks to the bowl and toss until they're evenly coated with the herb mixture.
Arrange the coated carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized. Turn them halfway through for even roasting.
Once baked, remove the carrots from the oven and sprinkle with lemon zest for an added burst of flavor.
Serve immediately as a delightful low-carb side dish.
