Categories     side dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 pounds large carrots (3 to 4 carrots), peeled
4 cloves garlic, sliced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh coriander
1 tablespoon chopped Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

  • Peel and cut the carrots evenly: This will help them cook evenly.

  • Don't overcrowd the pan: The carrots should be in a single layer so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the carrots over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without burning.
  • Stir the carrots occasionally: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Add water or broth as needed: The carrots should be covered in liquid at all times.

  • Serve the carrots immediately: They are best when served hot.
