Roasted Carrots

12 carrots (1 lb)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill or 2 tablespoons parsley

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2. If the carrots are thick, cut them in half lengthwise; if not, leave whole.
3. Slice the carrots diagonally in 1 1/2-inch-thick slices.
4. (The carrots will shrink while cooking so make the slices big.) Toss them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper.
5. Transfer to a sheet pan in one layer and roast in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until browned and tender.
6. Toss the carrots with minced dill or parsley, season to taste, and serve.
