Step 1

Lightly brush the carrots with olive oil. Grill over low heat, turning occasionally, for 20-25 minutes or until tender and lightly charred.

Step 2

While the carrots cook, prepare the vinaigrette. Add the shallot, garlic, basil, and vinegar to your blender. Blend on high, slowly drizzling in the oil, for about 45 seconds or until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Step 3

To serve, drizzle the carrots with vinaigrette. If desired, sprinkle with almonds.
