Ingredients
- 1 pound asparagus, trimmed
- 1 pound carrots, peeled and chopped
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss asparagus and carrots with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
- Pour garlic herb butter over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
- Spread vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until vegetables are tender-crisp and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
- Serve immediately. Garnish with lemon wedges, if desired.
Notes
For extra flavor, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of roasting. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving. Feel free to substitute other herbs like parsley or oregano. A drizzle of balsamic glaze adds a touch of sweetness.
