Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound carrots, peeled and thinly sliced (about 1/4 inch thick)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Step 3: Add the sliced carrots to the bowl and toss gently to coat them evenly with the flour mixture.
- Step 4: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated carrots to the skillet in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd.
- Step 5: Cook the carrots for 2-3 minutes per side, until they are lightly browned and crispy. Remove from skillet and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Step 6: Bake the carrots in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Store leftover Crispy Parmesan Carrots in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- For perfectly crisp reheated carrots, reheat them in a single layer on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes.
- These crispy carrots make a fantastic side dish for grilled chicken or fish, adding a delightful savory crunch to your meal.
- To ensure extra crispy carrots, ensure your carrots are completely dry before coating them in the flour mixture; this prevents excess steaming during cooking.
