Yep, I know another side! Hey, very often this course is the star…or can set the tone. These roasted carrots are a nice Fall accompaniment to your roasted chicken or a flavorful marinated flank steak. Use similar flavor profiles to marry the entrée and side together. Serve with roasted potatoes.
1 pound baby carrots
1 tablespoon olive oil
Juice and fresh grated zest of 1 lime
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 green onions, thinly sliced
Small handful fresh mint leaves, chopped
Cilantro, chopped
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Trim the tops off the carrots. Toss them on a baking sheet with the olive oil, lime juice and zest, honey, and spices. Roast about 20 minutes, until the carrots are just tender. Transfer to a plate and top with the green onions and mint.
Omg need to make this! I saw a recipe similar to this in a magazine. Now I have to try it!
