SUNNY'S EASY MAPLE AND LEMON PAN-ROASTED CARROTS

Steps:

• For the glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk the maple syrup, butter, lemon zest and juice, chile flakes and a pinch of kosher salt.
• For the carrots: In a large saute pan on medium to medium-high heat, add the olive oil and when it begins to swirl, add the carrots cut-side down and season with kosher salt and pepper. Cook to sear and caramelize, 5 to 10 minutes, then flip. On the flip, add the glaze and allow it to bubble and reduce, about 2 minutes. Pour everything onto a serving platter. Top with a sprinkle of flakey salt and chopped parsley or carrot greens.

Dry in oven, tossing grapes every 20 minutes or so, until skin shrivels and grapes are tawny and lightly caramelized, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Remove from oven and set aside. (Grapes can be made a day ahead and refrigerated.)
• Place carrots on paper towel-lined pan to dry. Increase oven temperature to 500 degrees. Place broiler pan or heavy roasting pan in oven.
