Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, toss the carrot sticks with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and dried thyme until evenly coated.

Spread the carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through.

Remove the carrots from the oven and drizzle with honey. Toss to coat evenly.

Return the carrots to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes, or until tender and caramelized.

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Chef's Tips

Uniform Size: Cut the carrots into similar-sized sticks to ensure even cooking.
Fresh Herbs: Substitute dried thyme with fresh thyme for a more vibrant flavor.
Spice It Up: Add a pinch of chili flakes for a spicy kick.
Alternative Sweetener: Maple syrup can be used instead of honey for a different flavor profile.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
