Zanahorias asadas con miel y especias cajún

Ingredientes

• 4 cups carrots (peeled and cut diagonally into 2-3 inch sections, about 12 medium carrots)
• Salt and cracked black pepper (to taste)
• 4 tablespoons butter (unsalted)
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/3 cup chicken stock
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon parika (smoked or regular)
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2-1 teaspoon hot sauce (such as Frank's RedHot)

Preparación

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204 °C). Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

2. 2

   Season carrots with salt and pepper and toss them to coat evenly. Transfer the carrots to the prepared baking dish and set them aside while you prepare the sauce.

3. 3

   Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the honey, chicken stock, spices, herbs, and hot sauce and stir to combine. Remove the sauce from the heat.

4. 4

   Carefully pour the cajun honey butter sauce over the carrots ensuring all of the carrots get coated with the sauce. Use a wooden spoon to stir the carrots to make sure they all have sauce on them.

5. 5

   Bake the carrots in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until tender. If you would like to char the carrots a bit, turn on the oven broiler and cook them for an additional 5-6 minutes until you see some brown charred marks on the carrots.

6. 6

   Transfer the carrots to a serving dish and enjoy!
