Slice carrots on a diagonal into long ½ -inch-thick slices; toss with remaining 1 tbsp oil and 1/2 tsp salt.
Arrange fennel and carrots on baking sheet, sprinkle with half of thyme, and roast for 30 minutes, flipping once, halfway through. Remove from oven and garnish with orange zest, remaining thyme, and Pecorino Romano.
Notes
If you bought untrimmed fennel, reserve some of the fronds. Chop them and use as a tasty garnish.
