Preparation

Step 1

Peel the carrots and cut them into sticks. Slice a lemon into 1/4 inch thick rounds and remove the seeds. Toss the carrots and lemon rounds with 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon peeled and grated fresh ginger, 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, a couple turns of freshly ground black pepper, and a sprig of fresh thyme, rosemary, or sage. Roast at 425 degrees in a rimmed sheet pan, stirring once or twice, until tender and browned in spots, about 25 minutes. Top with grated Parmesan before serving.
