How to Make Garlic Roasted Carrots

Ingredients

Be sure to see the recipe card below for the full listing of ingredients, instructions, notes, and estimated nutritional information.

You’ll need just five ingredients: fresh carrots, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper .

You can also use Stone House Seasoning in place of the garlic, salt, and pepper called for in the recipe if you already have already made some.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Prep. Preheat the oven and line a baking sheet with parchment.

Bake. Arrange the carrots on the baking sheet, drizzle them with the olive oil, and then sprinkle them with the garlic, salt, and pepper. After a quick toss to make sure they are well coated, I place them into the oven until they are fork tender, about 20 minutes.

Note: If the carrots are very large, the cooking time may be a bit longer, and if they are smaller, then just a bit less.

Serve. Remove from the oven and serve warm.

They are delicious when served with my rib eye steaks , baked chicken , baked ham , roast turkey , and so much more!
