For a richer flavor, use dark soy sauce instead of light soy sauce. If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can also roast the carrots in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized. Feel free to adjust the amount of Chinese five-spice powder to your liking. Start with a small amount and add more to taste. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade for a touch of heat. These glazed carrots are delicious served as a side dish with grilled meats, fish, or tofu.

01 Step
Recipe View 8 mins Prepare the Carrots: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the carrots and parboil for 5 minutes. This ensures they're tender enough to absorb the marinade and grill evenly. Drain the carrots immediately and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. (Total time: ~8 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View 30 mins Marinate the Carrots: In a large glass dish or resealable bag, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, sesame oil, fresh ginger, and Chinese five-spice powder. Add the parboiled carrots to the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to several hours in the refrigerator, to allow the flavors to penetrate. (Marinating time: 30+ minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View 10 mins Grill the Carrots: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the marinated carrots directly on the grill grates, or in an oiled wire-hinged vegetable basket. Grill, turning frequently, for approximately 8-10 minutes, or until the carrots are tender, slightly charred, and beautifully glazed. (Grilling time: ~10 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Serve: Remove the grilled carrots from the grill and serve immediately. Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped fresh scallions for an extra touch of flavor and visual appeal.
