Roasted Carrots with Orange Zest and Cinnamon We really enjoyed the unusual combination of flavors in this dish. I served it with roasted chicken, but it would be delicious served with fish as well. 1 pound carrots, peeled and trimmed 2 cloves garlic, smashed 2 orange zest strips, each 2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide, cut into julienne 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 1 cinnamon stick, broken in half 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Cut the carrots into 2-inch lengths; halve lengthwise any thick top portions so all the pieces will cook evenly. In a shallow 9-by-13-inch baking dish, combine the carrots, garlic and orange zest. Drizzle the vegetables with the olive oil and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Add the cinnamon stick, toss to coat the vegetables evenly, and spread in an even layer in the dish. Roast the carrots, stirring every 10 minutes, until tender and lightly browned, about 50 minutes. remove from the oven and transfer to a warmed serving dish. Sprinkle the carrots with the lemon juice and serve at once.
