Ingredients

  • 2 pounds (1 kg) carrots washed and peeled (or unpeeled)
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt plus more for seasoning
  • Cracked black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking oil spray; set aside.

  2. 2

    Trim ends of carrots and cut into thirds.

  3. 3

    Melt butter in a pan or skillet over medium-heat. Pour in honey and cook, while stirring, until completely melted through the butter. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant while stirring.

  4. 4

    Add the carrots and allow the sauce to thicken for a further minute, while tossing the carrots through the sauce. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Transfer carrots to baking sheet in a single layer so they cook evenly. Toss to evenly coat.

  6. 6

    Roast for 20 minutes, or until carrots are fork-tender. Broil (or grill) for 2-3 minutes on high heat to crisp/char the edges.

  7. 7

    OPTIONAL: Transfer them back into the skillet and allow carrots to simmer in the sauce over high heat for 5 minutes to thicken the sauce into a glaze. *SEE NOTES.

  8. 8

    Season with a little extra salt and pepper if desired. Garnish with parsley.
