12 carrots
3 tablespoons good olive oil
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt

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.

ROASTED CARROTS



Roasted Carrots image

This dish is inspired by a roasted carrot antipasto I recently sampled at Oliveto Cafe in Oakland, Calif. The roasted carrots were tossed with lots of parsley and thyme, and I loved the way those bitter herbs offset the sweetness of the carrots.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, side dish

Time 1h

Yield Serves six

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds carrots, peeled quartered or cut into sixths lengthwise depending on the size, then into 2-inch lengths
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon oregano
3 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Oil a sheet pan or a baking dish large enough to fit all of the carrots in a single layer. Place the carrots in a large bowl, and toss with the olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme and oregano.
  • Spread in an even layer in the prepared pan or baking dish. Cover with foil, and place in the oven for 30 minutes. Uncover, and if the carrots are not yet tender, turn the heat down to 375 degrees and return to the oven for 10 to 15 more minutes until tender. Add the parsley, stir gently, and taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves
4 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ teaspoons salt, or more to taste
freshly cracked black pepper to taste
1 sprig fresh rosemary, leaves stripped and finely chopped
8 carrots, peeled and chopped
4 red potatoes, quartered
2 slices onion

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Wash chicken breasts and pat dry. Separate the skin from the meat to create a pocket on each breast.
  • Combine garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary leaves in a small bowl; stir to combine. Rub about 1/6 of olive oil mixture under the skin of each breast and rub another 1/6 on the outside of the skin. Sprinkle with additional salt and pepper if you wish.
  • Arrange carrots, potatoes, and onion in the bottom of a roasting pan or casserole dish and season with salt and pepper. Place chicken, skin-side up, on top of the vegetables.

Lower the temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and cook until vegetables are tender and chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

ROASTED BEETS AND CARROTS



Roasted Beets and Carrots image

Caramelized and delicious. Use organic whole carrots for better true-carrot flavor. I use turbinado sugar because the crystals are bigger and they dissolve more slowly, which seems to lead to a better caramelized crust. I sometimes do a mix of half golden beets and half red beets -- then when I serve them, I fan the veggies out on the platter in a rainbow: golden beets, carrots, then red beets. Pretty!

  • Peel beets, slice into cubes approximately 1-2 inches square.
  • Spray baking pan with nonstick spray.

ROASTED CARROTS WITH TURMERIC AND CUMIN



Roasted Carrots With Turmeric and Cumin image

These are based on Suzanne Goin's turmeric-spiced root vegetables from her wonderful new book "The A.O.C. Cookbook." I use her technique for roasting the carrots, and use the same spices she uses, but I make the dish with a little less olive oil and butter. Suzanne serves her mix of carrots, turnips, parsnips and rutabagas with Greek yogurt seasoned with makrut lime juice and zest, and mint chutney. They are also delicious on their own.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, appetizer, side dish

Time 40m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 medium carrots, peeled
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds, lightly toasted
1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds, lightly toasted
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon Aleppo pepper or mild chili powder
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the carrots in half lengthwise and crosswise. If the carrots are fat at one end, cut the fat half in half again lengthwise, so that the pieces are more or less equal in thickness. Place in a large bowl and toss with the olive oil, salt and pepper, and thyme leaves.
  • Heat a heavy baking sheet in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and place the carrots on it in one layer. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring the carrots every 10 minutes. They should be slightly caramelized and tender.
  • While the carrots are in the oven place the cumin and coriander seeds in a mortar and pestle and grind. Add the soft butter, turmeric and Aleppo pepper or chili powder and stir with the pestle until well amalgamated. Transfer to a large pan.
  • Remove the carrots from the oven when done and add to the pan with the spice butter and the mint. Toss together, taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve from the pan or transfer to a platter.

Provided by Camille Bergerson

Yield 3 servings

6 whole carrots, or chopped (if you prefer bite-sized pieces), peeled with tips and ends cut off
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons honey
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

Nutrition Facts : Calories 158 calories, Carbohydrate 22 grams, Fat 7 grams, Fiber 3 grams, Protein 0 grams, Sugar 18 grams

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for carrots that are about the same size so they cook evenly. Avoid carrots that are too thick or have blemishes.
  • Wash and peel the carrots: Scrub the carrots with a vegetable brush to remove any dirt or debris. Then, use a vegetable peeler to remove the skin.
  • Cut the carrots into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If you are making carrot fries, cut the carrots into thin strips. For carrot chips, cut the carrots into thin slices.
  • Toss the carrots with oil and seasonings: This will help them to brown and caramelize in the oven. You can use olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil. Season the carrots with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and any other herbs or spices you like.
  • Roast the carrots at a high temperature: This will help them to caramelize and develop a slightly crispy exterior. Roast the carrots at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
  • Serve the carrots immediately: Roasted carrots are best served hot and fresh. You can serve them as a side dish, snack, or appetizer.

Conclusion:

Roasted carrots are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Try experimenting with different seasonings and herbs to find your favorite combination. Roasted carrots are a great way to add more vegetables to your diet and enjoy a tasty snack or side dish.
