Scale
- 2 lbs. peeled carrots
- 1/3 cup salted butter
- 3 tbsp. honey
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 tsp. red chili flakes
- 2 tbsp. fresh thyme
- 1/3 cup chopped pecans
- Fresh rosemary for garnish
- Non-stick cooking spray oil
Instructions
- Start by preheating the oven to 425°F and spraying a large sheet pan with oil. Next, cut the tops off of the carrots, then wash and peel the carrots.
- Cut the carrots in half or thirds, about 1-2 inches pieces. Set aside. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, add in the honey and mix.
- Next, add in the garlic and cook until the garlic becomes fragrant. Roughly 30–40 seconds. Now, season with salt, pepper, thyme, and the red chili flakes.
- Add the carrots to the honey-butter sauce and completely coat each carrot. Once the sauce thickens, transfer the carrots to the baking sheet and pour the remaining sauce over the carrots. Sprinkle pecans over the carrots.
- Pop the carrots in the oven for 25 minutes, or until you can easily poke a fork through the carrots. Transfer to a serving dish with the sauce from the sheet pan, top with more salt, and add rosemary. Serve and enjoy!
