- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Salt
- freshly ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Oil a sheet pan or a baking dish large enough to fit all of the carrots in a single layer.
- Place the carrots in a large bowl, and toss with the olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme and oregano.
- Spread in an even layer in the prepared pan or baking dish.
- Cover with foil, and place in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Uncover, and if the carrots are not yet tender, turn the heat down to 375 degrees and return to the oven for 10 to 15 more minutes until tender.
- Add the parsley, stir gently, and taste and adjust salt and pepper.
- Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
