Not sure what it’s like around your kitchen, but we always seem to have a half bag of carrots in our I don’t know about your kitchen, but I always seem to have a half bag of carrots lingering in my fridge. That’s exactly why I love recipes like these dill roasted carrots—they’re quick, simple, and turn a humble vegetable into something I actually get excited to serve. Roasting brings out the carrots’ natural sweetness, and the lemon-dill sauce takes them into crave-worthy territory.
The carrots come out of the oven tender and lightly caramelized, then are tossed in a bright, tangy dressing made with lemon juice, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, and plenty of fresh dill. The flavors are fresh and balanced—sweet, citrusy, and a little savory—and if I’m in the mood, I’ll finish them with a crumble of feta for a salty, creamy contrast.
