Best Roasted Carrots With Shallots Mozzarella And Spicy Bread Crumbs Recipes

ROASTED CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Oil a sheet pan or a baking dish large enough to fit all of the carrots in a single layer. Place the carrots in a large bowl, and toss with the olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme and oregano.
• Spread in an even layer in the prepared pan or baking dish. Cover with foil, and place in the oven for 30 minutes. Uncover, and if the carrots are not yet tender, turn the heat down to 375 degrees and return to the oven for 10 to 15 more minutes until tender. Add the parsley, stir gently, and taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

ROASTED CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• If the carrots are thick, cut them in half lengthwise; if not, leave whole. Slice the carrots diagonally in 1 1/2-inch-thick slices. (The carrots will shrink while cooking so make the slices big.) Toss them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Transfer to a sheet pan in 1 layer and roast in the oven for 20 minutes, until browned and tender.
• Toss the carrots with minced dill or parsley, season to taste, and serve.

OVEN-ROASTED SPICED CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, toss carrots with oil. Mix seasonings; sprinkle over carrots and toss to coat., Arrange carrots in a single layer in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray. Roast 25-30 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp-tender, stirring occasionally.

ROASTED CARROTS AND SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place carrots and shallots on a rimmed baking sheet, and toss with olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Spread in a single layer, and roast 40 minutes, turning a few times to ensure even cooking.
• If frying carrot tops for garnish, bring safflower oil to 350 degrees in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Fry carrot tops in batches until crisp, about 45 seconds. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate, and season with salt.
• Place vegetables around beef tenderloin; garnish with fried carrot tops.

ROASTED CARROTS WITH SHALLOTS, MOZZARELLA AND SPICY BREAD CRUMBS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place carrots and shallots on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil until well coated. Roast for 25 minutes, rotating pan halfway through. (The shallots will start to shrivel and brown at the edges, but they won't be cooked through yet.)
• In a small bowl, stir together bread crumbs, Parmesan, garlic, red-pepper flakes, remaining 3 tablespoons oil and a pinch of salt, tossing until well combined.
• Sprinkle mozzarella and olives all over carrots and shallots, then top with the seasoned bread crumbs. Continue to roast until the vegetables are golden brown and tender, 12 to 15 minutes longer. Just before serving, drizzle lemon juice all over the top and garnish with herbs.
