Orange-Rosemary Roasted Carrots
- 1 pound slender young carrots, scrubbed, halved lengthwise if large, greens trimmed to 2 inches above carrot tops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
- 2 thin orange slices, seeds removed
- 1 large sprig rosemary
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- Preheat oven to 425u0b0F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil; spread carrots on sheet. In a bowl, whisk oil and mustard. Pour over carrots and turn to coat. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and orange zest. Nestle orange slices and rosemary sprig among carrots; drizzle with orange juice. Tightly cover baking sheet with foil; roast until carrots are nearly tender, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven; drizzle with maple syrup. Roast, uncovered, until lightly caramelized and tender, about 10 minutes longer. Season with more salt, if desired.
