Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel and slice the carrots into thin, even slices about 1/4-inch thick.
Mince the garlic cloves finely.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and stir to coat them evenly with the olive oil.
Saute the carrots for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and continue to cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Sprinkle fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper over the carrots. Stir well to combine the flavors.
Cook for an additional 3 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and cooked through.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish to complement your Whole30 meal.
