- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Wash and peel the carrots. Trim any green tops, leaving about an inch for aesthetics.
In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, and half of the thyme and rosemary leaves.
Add the carrots to the bowl and toss well to coat them evenly with the herb mixture.
Place the carrots directly on the grill grates.
Grill the carrots for about 12-15 minutes or until they are tender and have a nice char, turning occasionally.
While the carrots are grilling, mix the honey and lemon juice in a small bowl.
Remove the grilled carrots from the grill and place them on a serving platter.
Drizzle the honey-lemon mixture over the hot carrots.
Sprinkle the remaining fresh thyme and rosemary leaves over the top.
Serve warm as a side dish to complement any Whole30 meal.
