Honey-Roasted Carrots with Lemon-Dill Yogurt

A Derby-ready side that feels Southern and springy at once: sweet roasted carrots glazed with a little honey and piled over a cool, herb-flecked yogurt with a shower of fresh dill. Colorful, elegant, and easy to serve alongside grilled meats or bourbon-glazed salmon.

Ingredients

  • Organic Carrot Bunch
    1 bunch $2.69
  • Organic Dill Bunch
    2 tablespoons, chopped $2.69
  • Organic Lemons
    1/2 lemon $1.29
  • Pantry: plain Greek yogurt
    1/2 cup
  • Pantry: olive oil
    1 tablespoon
  • Pantry: honey
    2 teaspoons
  • Pantry: kosher salt
    to taste
  • Pantry: black pepper
    to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Trim and peel the carrots if needed, then cut any thick ones in half lengthwise so they roast evenly.
  3. Toss the carrots with olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Spread on a sheet pan in a single layer.
  4. Roast for 22 to 28 minutes, turning once, until tender and browned at the edges.
  5. While the carrots roast, stir the Greek yogurt with a squeeze of lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and half of the chopped dill.
  6. Spread the yogurt on a serving plate or shallow bowl. Arrange the warm roasted carrots on top.
  7. Finish with the remaining dill, a little lemon zest if desired, and a final crack of black pepper.
