Preheat oven to 400°F and set aside a 9×13-inch baking dish.
In a small bowl, stir together the paprika, thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
To the baking dish, add the rice, broth, water, garlic, sliced carrots, and butter. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of the seasoning mix and stir to combine.
