Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs Carrots peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup Unsalted butter melted
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 3 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper
  • 2 tbsp Fresh parsley chopped, for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • Roasting pan
  • Large bowl
  • Small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl
  • Whisk

Method
 

Preparation & Roasting
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a large roasting pan. Peel and chop carrots into 1-inch pieces.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, honey, and minced garlic until well combined.
  3. Place chopped carrots in a large bowl, pour the honey garlic butter mixture over them, and toss to coat evenly. Season with salt and black pepper.
  4. Spread the seasoned carrots in a single layer on the prepared roasting pan. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and lightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
  5. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving hot.

Notes

For best results, do not overcrowd the roasting pan; use two pans if necessary to ensure even caramelization. Flipping the carrots halfway through cooking can also help achieve uniform browning.
