Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 800 grams carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and peel the carrots. Cut them diagonally into uniform pieces, about 1/4 inch thick and 1 1/2 inches long.
Place the carrot pieces in a large mixing bowl.
Add olive oil, salt, black pepper, fresh thyme, and garlic powder to the carrots.
Toss the carrots with the oil and seasonings, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
Spread the carrots out in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Make sure there's some space between the pieces to allow for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes or until the carrots are tender and caramelized, tossing halfway through.
Remove the carrots from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Serve warm, garnished with additional fresh thyme if desired.
