Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound rainbow carrots (peeled and cut into long, even pieces)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon lightly packed fresh mint leaves
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
1 medium clove garlic (grated*)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Place carrots in a medium bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the top and toss until coated. Add the salt and pepper and toss again. Place in the preheated oven and bake until fork-tender and lightly browned in spots, 20-25 minutes.
  • While the carrots roast, make the gremolata. Place the parsley and mint on a cutting board and begin to mince. About halfway through mincing, add the lemon zest and grated garlic. Continue mincing until the herb are finely chopped.
  • When the carrots are done, remove them from the oven and arrange on a platter. Top with the gremolata and serve.

HONEY-GLAZED CARROTS WITH CARROT TOP GREMOLATA



Honey-Glazed Carrots with Carrot Top Gremolata image

Dark honeys, like buckwheat, bring a touch of earthy sweetness to these lightly glazed beauties. The gremolata, made with the frilly green carrot tops, make a delicious and pretty finishing touch while adding to your #wasteless repertoire. If bunched carrots with tops aren't available, use parsley for the gremolata instead.

4 3/4-5 pounds small carrots with tops (about 4-5 bunches), trimmed, peeled, tops reserved
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1/3 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon dark honey, such as buckwheat
Kosher salt
2 small garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
