Ingredients

The following ingredients have 3 Servings
  • 1 1/2 pounds carrots (peeled)
  • 2 tablespoons (1 oz) unsalted butter (melted)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instruction

  • Adjust the oven rack to the middle position and heat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Cut each carrot in half crosswise and then cut each half lengthwise in halves or quarters as needed to create uniformly sized pieces. Toss the carrots in a large bowl along with the melted butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and toss to coat.
  • Dump the carrots on the parchment-lined baking sheet and spread in a single layer. Cover the baking sheet tightly with aluminum foil and roast for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and continue to roast, stirring twice, until the carrots are well browned and tender, about 30 minutes more.
  • Transfer to a serving dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately or at room temperature.
