Categories     Side Dish     Lunch     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 carrots (whole; peeled and washed)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 dash kosher salt (or to taste)
1 dash freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon rosemary
1/2 teaspoon thyme

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Heat the grill to medium-high heat, 400 F to 425 F.
  • While the grill is heating up, trim the leafy tops and any fibrous ends of the carrots. Wash and peel the carrots, patting them with a paper towel to dry. You can cut big carrots in half lengthwise if thick enough to still be at least 1/2 to 3/4-inch thick.
  • Place a single layer of carrots in a baking dish and coat lightly with olive oil.
  • Sprinkle the oiled carrots with the desired amount of salt and pepper, then season with rosemary and thyme.
  • Once the grill is heated, place the carrots on the grill (cut-side down if cut in half lengthwise) and cook covered until the carrots develop grill marks, about 7 to 8 minutes per side.
  • Once flipped, you will know when the carrots are done when both sides are seared (or they begin to brown) and can be pierced with a fork with a soft crunch in the middle.

These grilled carrots have a lovely sweet and smoky caramelized flavor, and are a nice change of pace at a summer cookout or dinner party. Use carrots that are no larger than 3/4-inch thick, or cut larger carrots in half lengthwise for even cooking. One pound should yield 6 to 8 medium carrots.
