Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and peel the carrots, then cut them into uniform sticks.
In a large bowl, toss the carrot sticks with olive oil.
Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme; mix well.
Spread the carrots evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes.
Stir the carrots halfway through cooking for even roasting.
Check for tenderness; they should be fork-tender and slightly caramelized.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
