⅛teaspoonkosher salt
Zest from 1 lemon (about 1 teaspoon)
1clovegarlic , finely chopped
2-3tablespoonscrumbled feta
2-4tablespoonspistachios , chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Arrange the carrots on a large sheet pan. Drizzle ¼ cup of the olive oil overtop, and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon of the salt. Use your hands to roll the carrots around the pan, making sure they’re well coated.
Roast. Place in the oven to roast for about 25 about minutes. The carrots should be tender and slightly caramelized.
Make the dill gremolata. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ¼ cup of olive oil, dill, lemon zest, garlic, and ⅛ teaspoon of salt, and whisk together. Add 1-2 more tablespoons of olive oil if needed (to make the mixture less pasty).
Top and serve. Once the carrots are finished roasting, arrange them on a platter and spoon the dill gremolata over them. Sprinkle with crumbled feta (crumble any large pieces into smaller ones) and pistachios.
