- 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
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.
