Ingredients
- 2 pounds carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, approximately 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Peel the carrots and trim the tops. Cut them in half lengthwise if they are thick, so that all pieces are roughly the same thickness for even grilling.
Step 3
In a large bowl, toss the carrots with olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper until well coated.
Step 4
Place the carrots on the preheated grill. Grill for 8-10 minutes per side, or until they are tender and have grill marks. Use tongs to turn them occasionally.
Step 5
While the carrots are grilling, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, lime juice, and lime zest until well combined.
Step 6
Once the carrots are grilled to your liking, remove them from the grill and place them on a serving platter.
Step 7
Drizzle the honey-lime glaze evenly over the grilled carrots.
Step 8
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
Step 9
Serve your Paleo Grilled Carrots with Honey-Lime Glaze immediately for the best flavor.
