How to Store, Freeze & Reheat

These carrots are best served warm, right out of the oven. They pair beautifully with roasted chicken, pork chops, or even a simple grain bowl. For a festive touch, sprinkle with sesame seeds or a little crumbled feta.

Leftovers keep in the fridge for up to 4 days. To reheat, I like to use a skillet over medium heat to revive the glaze and get the edges crisp again. They’re also great chopped up and added to salads the next day.

🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, garlic, soy sauce, salt, and pepper.
Add the carrot sticks to the bowl and toss until each piece is well coated with the glaze.
Spread the carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and caramelized.
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve warm.

👩🍳 Chef Elena’s Kitchen Notes & Storage

For extra caramelization, broil the carrots for the last 2 minutes—just watch them closely so they don't burn. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days; reheat in a skillet over medium heat to bring back the sticky glaze.
