ROASTED CARROTS WITH GARLIC PARSLEY BUTTER
Here we toss perfectly roasted carrots with butter that's been infused with garlic and parsley. Instead of the parsley, consider adding basil, crushed red pepper flakes, dill, cumin, or other favorite flavors. The recipe below is more of a template than a strict recipe. Carrots are perfectly delicious roasted, but so are parsnips, squash, potatoes or other hardy vegetable you find in season. Feel free to switch them out for something else.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Cut carrots into 2 to 3-inch sticks. (Depending on how wide the thicker ends are, you may need to slice each stick in half, lengthwise). Toss carrots onto the baking sheet with the olive oil and salt. Make sure the carrots are coated then spread out into one layer. Roast carrots, stirring twice, until they are tender with edges that are lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
- While the carrots roast, melt butter in a small pan over low heat. Use the back of a large knife to gently crush the garlic clove. Remove the skin then add clove to the butter along with the parsley. Wait until the butter bubbles gently then cook for 1 minute. Slide the pan away from the heat and set aside for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove and discard the garlic.
- Slide the roasted carrots into a bowl with the garlic parsley butter. Toss then season to taste with additional salt as needed.

Steps:
- Cut the carrots into 3-by-1/2-by-1/8-inch pieces. Fill a large saucepan with water; bring to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons salt. Blanch carrots until they start to soften but are still firm, about 2 1/2 minutes. Transfer to a colander; rinse under cold water; set aside.
- In a large skillet set over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the blanched carrots, and toss in the butter to coat. Cook carrots until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Serve.
Tips:
- Select young, tender carrots: Look for carrots that are smooth, firm, and have a vibrant orange color. Avoid carrots that are limp, wrinkled, or have blemishes.
- Peel and trim the carrots: Use a vegetable peeler to remove the outer layer of the carrots. Then, trim the ends and cut the carrots into 2-inch pieces.
- Blanch the carrots: Blanching the carrots helps to retain their color and nutrients. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the carrots and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Drain the carrots and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Make the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the butter, honey, brown sugar, water, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened.
- Glaze the carrots: Add the blanched carrots to the glaze and stir to coat. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the carrots are heated through.
Conclusion:
Glazed parsley carrots are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The carrots are tender-crisp and coated in a sweet and savory glaze that is sure to please everyone at the table. This recipe is also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables!
