Carrots With Shallots Recipes

EASY ROASTED CARROTS AND SHALLOTS

Steps:

GLAZED CARROTS & SHALLOTS

Steps:

• If using small or baby carrots, leave them whole; if using large carrots, cut them in half lengthwise. Set them flat side down and cut slices on the diagonal about 1/4 inch thick. Peel the shallots; cut larger ones into quarters lengthwise and smaller ones in half. Put the vegetables in a pan large enough to hold them in a thin layer. Add the butter, water, salt, and sugar. Bring the liquid to a boil; reduce the heat to medium, cover the pot, and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally and checking to be sure the vegetables aren't too dry. Add a few drops of water if needed. Remove the lid, increase the heat to high, and cook, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pot, until the carrots are caramelized and glazed, about another 10 minutes.

ROAST CHICKEN DINNER WITH CARROTS AND SHALLOTS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Toss together the carrots, shallots, orange peel, rosemary and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and the olives. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of black pepper. Scatter the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet or roasting pan.
• 2. Toss together the remaining olive oil, salt, pepper and paprika with the chicken pieces. Place the chicken between the vegetables on the baking sheet and roast until the chicken is just cooked through but still juicy, and the carrots are fork tender, 40 minutes.

ROASTED TURKEY WITH CARROTS AND SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Cut along 1 side of the breastbone, and then down along the ribs; gently pull and cut the meat away from the bone to cut the breast off the carcass. Do the same to remove the other breast.
• Season the turkey breasts on both sides with a generous amount of salt and pepper. Put a large roasting pan on the stove over medium heat and get it good and hot. Drizzle the pan with a 3-count of oil. Add a few sage leaves and stir to flavor the oil. Lay the breasts in the hot oil, skin-side down and cook for about 5 minutes until the skin begins to set and crisp. Flip the breasts over and push them off to 1 side.
• Add the shallots, carrots, and handful of sage leaves to the pan and stir to coat with the oil. Sprinkle the vegetables with salt and pepper. Stick the pan in the hot oven and roast for about 30 minutes until the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 160 degrees F on an instant read thermometer, and the shallots and carrots are tender and browned.
• Remove the turkey and the vegetables to a serving platter and set aside. Now work on the gravy: Put the roasting pan over 2 burners, over medium heat. Stir in the flour with a wooden spoon. Then gradually stir in the stock, scraping the bottom of the pan to pick up all of the browned bits. Give the gravy a squeeze of lemon and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Slice the turkey and serve with the gravy.

Roast for 25 minutes, rotating pan halfway through. (The shallots will start to shrivel and brown at the edges, but they won't be cooked through yet.)
• In a small bowl, stir together bread crumbs, Parmesan, garlic, red-pepper flakes, remaining 3 tablespoons oil and a pinch of salt, tossing until well combined.
• Sprinkle mozzarella and olives all over carrots and shallots, then top with the seasoned bread crumbs. Continue to roast until the vegetables are golden brown and tender, 12 to 15 minutes longer. Just before serving, drizzle lemon juice all over the top and garnish with herbs.
