Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 lb carrots, peeled and cut into sticks or coins

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Zest of 1 lemon

  • Juice of 1/2 lemon

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Prep the carrots: In a large bowl, toss the carrots with olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).

  3. Roast: Spread carrots out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden brown on the edges.

  4. Serve: Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.

Notes

  • You can use rainbow carrots for extra color.

  • Add a drizzle of honey before roasting for a sweet and tangy twist.

 

  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
