Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 medium-sized Carrots
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Peel the carrots and trim off the tops. If the carrots are thick, slice them in half lengthwise for even cooking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, lime juice, lime zest, freshly ground black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Toss the carrots in about half of the honey-lime glaze, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Place the carrots on the preheated grill. Grill for about 10 minutes, then turn and continue grilling for another 8-10 minutes, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
Remove the carrots from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
Drizzle the remaining honey-lime glaze over the grilled carrots.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a delicious low-sodium side dish.
