Ingredients
Units
Scale
2 lbs carrots, peeled
1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt, to taste
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp black pepper (or 15–20 twists of fresh ground black pepper)
Garnish
Fresh parsley, thyme, dill, or chives for garnish (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Peel the carrots.
- Choose the size of the carrots: Option 1, whole carrots: Leave the carrots whole, but slice larger ones in half lengthwise if needed. It’s okay if the sizes vary a little, the little ones will just be a little more golden (which is delicious!), but you’ll want to make sure that the larger carrots will be fully cooked, so the sizes shouldn’t vary too much. Option 2, sliced carrot pieces: Cut the carrots into 2 to 3-inch pieces then cut the thinner pieces in half and the thicker pieces in quarters. This technique will take less time to cook.
- Spread the carrots out in a baking dish or on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine and spread carrots out into a single layer.
- Bake until the carrots are golden and fork tender, about 40-60 minutes for whole carrots (depending on how thick the carrots are), or 25-40 minutes for the carrot pieces.
- Top with fresh chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
