Honey Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots
These delicious honey garlic butter roasted carrots are a nice combination of sweet and smoky and they are so easy to make.
I recently made a garlic butter roast chicken and paired it with a delicious and easy honey garlic butter roasted carrots recipe that I found on Little Spice Jar. The recipe has you toss the carrots in the honey garlic butter first, then roast them separately for a bit, and finally toss them back into the butter sauce to finish roasting, so the carrots won’t be a burned mess. I know this cooking process uses more dishes but I think it’s worth it because the carrots ended up, buttery, tender, sweet, and garlicky–perfect!
Honey Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots
Ingredients:
- 1 lb carrots, washed, peeled, and cut into chunks
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 1/2 tbsp honey
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
How to Make Honey Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Coat a small baking sheet with cooking spray.
Heat the butter, honey, and minced garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat until melted, about 1 minute.
Add the carrots and stir to evenly coat the carrots. Using tongs, remove the carrots from the saucepan and place them on the prepared small baking sheet, spreading them apart from each other.
Place into the oven to roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the carrots are fork-tender.
When the carrots are done, toss them in the remaining sauce (or pour the sauce over the carrots and toss.) Roast for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until caramelized.
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with parsley, and serve immediately. Enjoy.
