Carrots are roasted with diced onion, garlic, honey and seasoning. It sounds like it would be sweet, but a little adobo sauce balances the filling out so nicely. The sauce is simple and light - just fresh squeezed orange juice with a little butter, honey and orange zest. The cooking time sounds like it would be long and tedious, but most of it is roasting the veggies. This dish sounds fancy, but it very easy to make. A nice side dish with grilled chicken or fish, or serve it as a main dish over sauteed spinach, chard, or baby kale.
