Grilled Baby Carrots Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Brush carrots with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place carrots on the grill, perpendicular to the grates. Reduce heat to medium and cook, turning them regularly, until carrots have started to caramelize and are cooked throughout, 14 to 18 minutes. Move them to indirect heat and continue cooking if they start burning.
• Brush carrots with maple syrup and grill 1 minute more before transferring to a plate. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• FOR THE BARBECUE RUB: Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl, mixing well. Place the baby carrots in a large bowl and coat with olive oil. Shake the bowl gently to ensure the oil covers all of the carrots. Add three tablespoons of the barbecue rub and shake to incorporate. Set aside for use. Note: You can store the remaining rub in an airtight container for future use.
• FOR THE DILL-YOGURT SAUCE: In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, dill, lemon juice and buttermilk. Whisk well. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve for use.
• Light the charcoal using a chimney starter. Place real wood charcoal into the chimney. Place several sheets of loosely crumpled newspaper under the bottom of the chimney. Ensure the charcoal is red hot, should take approximately 20-25 minutes.
• Spoon the carrots onto a grill screen over direct heat. Note: If you reserved the carrots in the fridge and they have released moisture, add another teaspoon of barbecue rub to the carrots before grilling. Cover grill for 5 minutes. Remove cover and check for doneness. They should be tender (when squeezed they should forgive). If not, cover and cook for another 3-5 minutes. It will take about 8-10 minutes total.
• TO MAKE HOMEMADE TOASTED PECANS: Spread pecans on a sheet tray and place in a 350 degree oven for 8-10 minutes. Coarsely chop. Arrange finished carrots in a serving bowl. Garnish with pecans and dill yogurt sauce.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, rosemary, garlic and ginger until combined. Whisk in 2 tablespoons oil so dressing emulsifies; set aside.
• Heat grill to low. Coat carrots with oil and season with salt. Grill carrots, covered, turning as needed to prevent burning, until nicely charred and fork tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• When carrots come off the grill, toss them immediately in the prepared dressing. Once they're coated, use tongs to transfer the carrots to a serving platter and garnish with green onion. Drizzle a few spoonfuls of the remaining dressing over the top.

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In medium bowl, toss all ingredients except onion. Place in grill basket (grill "wok"). Reserve oil mixture in bowl.
• Cover and grill vegetables over medium heat 10 minutes. Add onion to oil mixture in bowl; toss to coat. Add onion to grill basket. Cover and grill 8 to 10 minutes longer, shaking basket or stirring vegetables occasionally, until all vegetables are crisp-tender.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Spray rectangular pan, 13x9x2 inches, with cooking spray.
• Mix all ingredients except carrots in large bowl. Add both bags of carrots; toss to coat. Spread carrots in pan.
• Bake uncovered 35 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until carrots are tender.
