These Oven Roasted Carrots are a classic, simple vegetable side dish that goes with just about any main course. Lightly tossed and olive oil and dressed with fresh dill, they are buttery and tender with just the slightest satisfying crunch.
There is just something about Oven Roasted Carrots that we love here at Bubba Pie. Roasting them really brings out their aroma and slight sweetness that makes them a perfect side dish for any occasion.
They are remarkably simple to make and only take a couple of simple ingredients. But they are easy to dress up anyway you’d like. From adding a little more sweetness to get Honey Glazed Carrots, to these savory Garlic Roasted Carrots, you just can’t go wrong!
Oven Roasted Carrots with Dill
Today, our secret ingredient is fresh Dill. If you can grow your own in your own garden, that is perfect, otherwise go and grab some in the produce section of your grocery store. Ready to get started? Here is what you’ll need:
- 1 lb, 16 oz, baby carrots
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- salt and pepper
- chopped fresh dill
Do I Need To Use Baby Carrots?
No. You can use any carrots you’d like to for this recipe. Just make sure to cut the down to the size I have in the pictures. And make sure they are all an even size so the roast equally.
If you use whole, fresh carrots, I’d recommend peeling them. But it isn’t imperative that you do so. If you don’t peel them, just make sure you scrub them well with a brush.
Salt and Pepper To Taste
Like with so many other vegetable side dishes, the key is to use salt and pepper to taste. So don’t be afraid to do some taste testing while cooking!
