Equipment

  • Oven
  • baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl
  • parchment paper

Ingredients
  

Vegetables

  • 1 pound carrots, peeled

Pantry

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 0.25 teaspoon coarse salt
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1.5 tablespoons honey
  • 1.5 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley or to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Trim ends from carrots and cut diagonally into thirds. If carrots are large, cut lengthwise first, then diagonally into thirds so all pieces are about the same size.
  • Combine olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Spread out carrots on the baking sheet, and drizzle with olive oil mixture until all are coated.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until tender and starting to brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk honey, balsamic vinegar, thyme, lemon juice, and garlic in the same bowl you used for the oil, and set aside.
  • Drizzle roasted carrots with honey-balsamic mixture and toss to coat. Return to oven and roast until glaze is caramelized, about 5 minutes more.
  • Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with parsley. Serve warm.
