Still In the Oven

Marilyn’s Roasted Carrots

This is an amazing vegetable side dish. Tasty and colorful. Good for a pot luck, too, since it doesn’t need to be served hot.

3 # carrots (15-20 medium) cut into pieces 2” long by 1/4” thick
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Coarse salt, to taste
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon lemon zest and 3 tablespoons lemon juice

Carrots.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.  On two large rimmed baking sheets, toss carrots with oil and cayenne; season with salt.  Arrange in a single layer.  Roast, tossing once halfway through, until tender, 30-40 minutes.

Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, zest, lemon juice; season with salt.  If making ahead of time, cover and refrigerate carrots and dressing separately, up to 1 day.  Otherwise, drizzle dressing over cooked carrots (still on baking sheet); toss to coat.  Transfer to a serving dish; serve warm or at room temperature.

This recipe serves 8 easily. Can be halved.
