Ingredients
  

4 large carrots, peeled

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon honey

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Carrots: Using a vegetable peeler or a mandoline, slice the carrots into long, thin ribbons. Aim for uniform thickness for even cooking.

      Make the Dressing: In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, honey, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme. Whisk until well combined.

        Toss the Carrots: Add the carrot ribbons to the bowl of dressing. Using your hands or tongs, toss the ribbons until they are evenly coated in the mixture.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the carrot ribbons out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overlapping to ensure each ribbon roasts evenly.

            Roast the Carrots: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 15-20 minutes, or until the ribbons are tender and starting to caramelize, stirring halfway through for even roasting.

              Add the Parmesan: Once the carrots are roasted, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the freshly grated Parmesan cheese over the top. Return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, just until the cheese melts and becomes slightly golden.

                Garnish and Serve: Remove the roasted carrot ribbons from the oven, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your delightful and flavorful Golden Parmesan Roasted Carrot Ribbons!
