For enhanced caramelization, consider adding a tablespoon of maple syrup or honey along with the olive oil before roasting. Feel free to experiment with other herbs such as sage or oregano to customize the flavor profile. Ensure the vegetables are cut into roughly the same size to promote even cooking. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can substitute with dried herbs. Use about 1 teaspoon of each dried herb.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, toss the carrots and parsnips with olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper, ensuring even coverage. (5 minutes)
03
StepSpread the vegetables in a single layer on a 10x15-inch baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure proper browning. (2 minutes)
04
StepRoast in the preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and beautifully browned, approximately 40 to 45 minutes. (45 minutes)
05
StepWhile the vegetables are roasting, prepare the herb butter. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, shallot, chives, rosemary, thyme, and minced garlic. Mix well until thoroughly combined. (5 minutes)
06
StepOnce the vegetables are roasted, remove them from the oven. Add the herb butter to the hot vegetables and toss gently to coat. The heat from the vegetables will melt the butter, creating a luscious glaze. (3 minutes)
07
StepServe immediately and enjoy the symphony of flavors!
