Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs carrots
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and peel the carrots. If the carrots are thick, cut them lengthwise into halves or quarters to ensure even roasting.
Place the prepared carrots on a large baking sheet in a single layer.
Drizzle the olive oil over the carrots and toss to coat them evenly.
Remove the rosemary leaves from the stems and finely chop them. Sprinkle the chopped rosemary over the carrots.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Add the minced garlic to the carrots on the baking sheet.
Season the carrots with salt and black pepper. Toss again to evenly distribute the seasonings.
Roast the carrots in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until they are tender and lightly caramelized, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Transfer the roasted carrots to a serving plate and serve immediately.
