Open in Pepper →A pan of carrots with butter and honey turns a plain vegetable into the thing the kids ask for again. They roast while the chicken rests, and they don't need much watching.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these on busy weeknights when the main dish is handled and the side still needs to happen, and again at Thanksgiving when the oven is already hot.
Every recipe here is a carrot side you can put on a plate: Glazed Carrots with brown sugar and butter, Honey Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots, Balsamic Roasted Baby Carrots, Cinnamon Butter Baked Carrot, Brown Sugar Bacon Wrapped Baby Carrots, and Roasted Carrots with Cranberry Goat Cheese.
Cut them the same size
Quarter large carrots lengthwise and cut into 3-inch sticks so every piece is tender at the same time.
Roast hot and high
Use 400 to 425°F for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring once, so the edges brown instead of steaming.
Add honey at the end
Stir in honey or brown sugar during the last 5 to 8 minutes so the sugar glazes instead of scorching.
Give them room
Spread carrots in one layer on a sheet pan with space between; two pans beat one crowded pan every time.
