Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 carrots
3 tablespoons good olive oil
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill or parsley

Steps:

  • 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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for carrots that are firm and smooth, with no blemishes or cracks. Smaller carrots will cook more evenly than larger ones.
  • Prepare the carrots properly: Scrub the carrots well to remove any dirt or debris. Peel the carrots if desired, but you can also leave the skins on for added nutrients.
  • Use fresh herbs: Dill weed is the perfect herb to pair with roasted carrots, but you can also use other fresh herbs such as parsley, thyme, or rosemary.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the carrots, make sure to spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet. Overcrowding will prevent the carrots from cooking evenly.
  • Roast the carrots until tender: The carrots are done roasting when they are tender when pierced with a fork. Depending on the size of the carrots, this will take about 20-30 minutes.
  • Season the carrots to taste: Once the carrots are roasted, season them with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. You can also drizzle them with a little bit of olive oil or melted butter for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Roasted carrots with dill weed is a simple but delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The carrots are roasted until tender and flavorful, and the dill weed adds a bright, fresh flavor. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. So next time you're looking for a healthy and tasty side dish, give roasted carrots with dill weed a try!
