Garlic Parmesan Roasted Carrot
Description
This Garlic Parmesan Roasted Carrot recipe starts with peeled carrots coated evenly in melted butter mixed with minced garlic, imparting a rich, savory aroma. Roasting at 400°F (200°C) softens the carrots while caramelizing their natural sugars. After an initial roasting period of 15 minutes, grated Parmesan cheese is sprinkled on top, and the carrots roast for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese melts and forms a lightly browned crust.
The roasted carrots develop a tender yet slightly firm texture, complemented by the savory garlic butter and nutty Parmesan flavors. A finishing touch of chopped parsley adds fresh, herbal notes and color contrast. This side dish offers a balance of buttery richness and mild sweetness from the carrots.
Garlic Parmesan Roasted Carrots work well alongside roasted meats, poultry, or fish, or as part of a vegetable array. The recipe notes suggest alternative sweet roasted carrot options, such as honey butter or maple butter versions, for variety.
Ingredients
- 12 oz. (350g) carrot skin peeled
- 2 tablespoons butter melted, salted

Instructions
