- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 whole Garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried rosemary

Instructions
Wash and peel the carrots. Slice them into thin rounds, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Mince the garlic cloves finely.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the heated oil and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and stir to coat them evenly with the garlic oil.
Sprinkle the salt, ground black pepper, dried thyme, and dried rosemary over the carrots. Stir well to distribute the seasonings evenly.
Cook the carrots, stirring occasionally, for about 12-15 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly crisp, and lightly browned.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley, tossing the carrots to combine.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then serve immediately as a delightful side dish.
