This carrot side dish is versatile in that you can season it however you’d like with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, rosemary, etc. To be honest, I use whatever seasonings I have on hand and just measure with my heart. You definitely don’t need a lot of salt for this recipe as the parmesan cheese is already pretty salty.

Ingredients

  • 8 medium carrots
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1½ cups shredded parmesan cheese
  • seasoning to taste

Ingredients needed to make crispy parmesan roasted carrots

Step 1Wash your carrots and cut them into about 1-inch sections. Then, slice the sections in half so that each one has a flat side. Toss the carrots in a bowl with olive oil and the seasoning of your choice.

Crispy Parmesan Roasted Carrots

The ultimate food hack! This is how you make extra crispy carrots in your oven with a bed of shredded parmesan cheese. This easy vegetable side dish can be enjoyed with just about any dinner including chicken, steak, bbq, seafood, and more. So yummy, even your kids will love it!

Ingredients

  • 8 medium size carrots
  • 1-2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1½ cups shredded parmesan cheese
  • seasoning to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400° F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper (my sheet pan is 11x17).
  • Wash your carrots and cut them crosswise into about 1-inch sections. Then, slice the sections in half so that each one has a flat side.
  • Toss the carrots in a bowl with olive oil and the seasoning of your choice such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and rosemary. Go light on the salt as the parmesan is already pretty salty.
  • Sprinkle about 1¼ cups of shredded parmesan cheese onto your prepared baking sheet (reserving ¼ cup to top the carrots with later). If you're using a sheet pan larger than mine, you most likely only need to cover approximately ¾ of the pan.
  • Place the seasoned carrots with the cut sides down over the parmesan cheese while avoiding any large gaps between the carrots.
  • Sprinkle the remaining parmesan cheese over top and then bake in the center rack of your oven for 20-30 minutes, or until the carrots are soft. You should be able to easily poke them with a fork or knife.

Notes

  • The parmesan cheese tends to fuse the carrots together especially if you let them sit for a while before serving. I simply pull them apart or cut them up with a pizza cutter. 
  • The sheet pan I use for this recipe is 11x17 and seems to be just the right size for spreading out 1¼ cups of parmesan to create a thin layer. You can adjust the amount of cheese you use depending on the size of your dish. There's no exact math or science here! 
  • These delicious carrots can also be served as a yummy snack with ranch dressing for dipping. So yummy!
  • If you have a rosemary bush near your home, I highly recommend chopping up a few sprigs and including it with your seasoning. 

Don’t forget to pin and save this easy side dish for later! 🙂
