Total time: 25 min
Yield: 6
Ingredients: 12 carrots; 3 tbsp olive oil; 1 ¼ tsp salt; ½ tsp pepper; 2 tbsp chopped herbs

Ingredients

12 carrots

3 tbsp olive oil

1 ¼ tsp salt

½ tsp pepper

2 tbsp chopped herbs

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

If the carrots are thick, cut them in half lengthwise; if not, leave whole. Slice the carrots diagonally in 1 1/2-inch-thick slices. (The carrots will shrink while cooking so make the slices big.)

Toss them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Transfer to a sheet pan in 1 layer and roast in the oven for 20 minutes, until browned and tender.

Toss the carrots with minced dill or parsley, season to taste, and serve.
