Cooking Steps

1

Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Peel and grate ginger. Roughly chop pecans. Roughly chop parsley. Toss carrots on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil and as much ginger as you like. Season with salt and pepper. Roast on top rack until tender, 20-25 minutes. Meanwhile, heat 2 tsp water in a small pan over medium-high heat. Add brown sugar and a big pinch of salt; cook, stirring, until dissolved and beginning to bubble, 2-3 minutes. Stir in pecans and cook until syrup thickens and pecans are coated, 2-4 minutes. Transfer candied pecans to parchment paper and let cool. Once cool enough to handle, break up nuts. Transfer carrots to a large bowl and toss with garlic herb butter until butter has melted and carrots are evenly coated. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired. Transfer to a platter and sprinkle with candied pecans and parsley. Serve.

Review summary

Updated on Dec 2025
  • Flavor: The ginger brought a pleasant punch, and many found these carrots delicious. Some felt they lacked sweetness despite the brown sugar.
  • Ease of prep: Simple to put together, though a few needed more cooking time for tender carrots.
  • Suggestions: Consider adjusting cooking time if your oven is full. For sweeter carrots, you might reduce ginger or increase brown sugar.
  • Portions: Several noted the dish served fewer people than expected, closer to 2-3 rather than 6-8.
  • Candied pecans: The candied pecans were a hit, but some found them too few and clumpy to sprinkle easily.
