Peel the carrots and slice them in half lengthways. If they're particularly large, you can also cut them into quarters so that each piece has a flat side.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika powder, chili flakes, pepper, italian herbs, chopped parsley, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the carrots to the bowl with the marinade and toss until they are evenly coated.
Spread the grated Parmesan cheese onto a baking sheet or ovenproof dish.
Dip the flat sides of the carrots into the grated Parmesan cheese, ensuring they are generously coated.
Place the carrots, cheese-side down, on the baking sheet or dish.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the Parmesan cheese is golden and crispy.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious Crispy Parmesan Carrots as a flavorful side dish or snack!
Notes
Choose fresh, firm carrots with vibrant orange color for the best flavor and texture.
Ensure the carrots are evenly coated with the olive oil and seasoning mixture to achieve uniform flavor and crispiness.
Keep an eye on the carrots during the last few minutes of baking to prevent the Parmesan cheese from burning.
