Ingredients to Prepare Oven Roasted Dill Carrots
1 lb of fresh, medium-sized carrots
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 tablespoon of What the Dillio seasoning
Olive oil for roasting
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). A hot oven is essential for achieving the perfect caramelization on the carrots.
Step 2: Prepare the Carrots
Rinse and peel the carrots. For even roasting, cut them into uniform sticks.
Step 3: Season the Carrots
In a large mixing bowl, combine the prepared carrots with olive oil, What the Dillio, salt, and pepper. Toss until the carrots are well coated.
Step 4: Roast the Carrots
Arrange the seasoned carrots in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for about 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through. The goal is for the carrots to become tender with slightly golden edges.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once roasted, take the carrots out of the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. They are a fabulous addition to any meal and can be garnished with extra dill for a pop of color and flavor.
Pairing Suggestions
Oven Roasted Dill Carrots pair wonderfully with a variety of main dishes. They complement roasted chicken (try our Bird's the Word ~ Oven Roasted Chicken, grilled fish, or even a Cowboy Porterhouse Steak. Consider serving them alongside a light salad or grain dish for a balanced meal.
