Ingredients
  

1 pound fresh carrots, peeled and cut into sticks

3 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

Salt and black pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Carrots: In a mixing bowl, combine the peeled and cut carrot sticks with the olive oil, ensuring they are well coated.

      Make the Honey Garlic Mixture: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

        Combine: Pour the honey garlic mixture over the carrots and toss until all the carrot sticks are evenly coated.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the carrots out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded.

            Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the carrots for about 20-25 minutes. Toss them halfway through the cooking time for even roasting. The carrots should be tender and caramelized at the edges.

              Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove the carrots from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness if desired.

                Enjoy: Serve warm as a delightful side dish to complement any main course or enjoy them as a healthy snack!
