This recipe delivers perfectly tender carrots with a savory, crisp coating of Parmesan cheese and garlic. It is a simple, flavorful side dish for any meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound carrots, peeled and trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Cut the carrots into uniform pieces, about 1/2 inch thick, so they cook evenly.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the cut carrots with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until the carrots are fully coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Do not overcrowd the pan.
  5. Roast for 15 minutes.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the carrots. Gently toss the carrots on the pan to coat them with the cheese.
  7. Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the Parmesan cheese is melted and lightly golden brown.
  8. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately as your savory carrot recipe side dish.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, toss the carrots with the oil and seasonings, then roast for 10 minutes before adding the Parmesan cheese.
  • You can add 1/4 teaspoon of dried Italian seasoning or a pinch of red pepper flakes with the initial seasoning for flavor variation.
  • If your carrots are very thick, you may need to increase the initial roasting time by 5 minutes.
