Ingredients
Scale
Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this simple yet satisfying dish:
- 1 pound of carrots, peeled and cut into sticks
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish, optional
If you’re missing dried thyme, rosemary makes a great substitute. And if you’re feeling a bit adventurous, try throwing in a pinch of red pepper flakes for some heat.
Instructions
Follow these simple steps for a dish that’ll make your kitchen smell like a little slice of heaven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the carrot sticks with olive oil, minced garlic, and dried thyme until evenly coated.
- Spread the carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized around the edges.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle the grated parmesan over the hot carrots. Toss to coat the carrots evenly with the cheese.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy the love in every bite.
Remember, like all good things in life, these carrots are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven when they’re still crispy and warm.
