Sweet and Crunchy Grilled Carrots on a Foreman Grill
Grilling brings out more of the inherent sweetness of carrots and George Foreman Grill is well suited for grilling carrots helping them retain some of that crunch. Enjoy this tasty Grilled Carrots Recipe with a simple Balsamic Glaze.
Ingredients
- 4 whole carrots peeled and tops/bottoms removed
- extra virgin olive oil EVOO
- fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Wash and peel the carrots. Slice a small section off of one side so the carrots will sit flat on the cutting board (for ease and safety). Then, slice into 1/4” thick planks along the length of the carrots.
- Place carrots on a plate and drizzle with just enough olive oil to lightly coat and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
- Allow them to sit for 20 minutes up to an hour.
- Heat your basic George Foreman Grill until hot.
- Place the coated carrots across the grill ridges and close the top.
- Grill in batches for approximately 8 minutes. Check for doneness and the texture you prefer.
- Set the carrots aside on the plate.
- Serve as is with salt and pepper or serve with the balsamic glaze described below.
