Tender carrots coated in a buttery honey glaze make an easy, flavorful side dish with a beautiful glossy finish.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds carrots, peeled and cut into pieces
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the carrots by peeling and cutting them into evenly sized pieces.
  2. Cook the carrots until just tender, then drain well.
  3. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat and stir in the honey.
  4. Add the cooked carrots and toss until evenly coated in the honey-butter glaze.
  5. Continue cooking for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens and the carrots are glossy.
  6. Season with salt and black pepper, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Cut the carrots into similar-sized pieces so they cook evenly.
  • Maple syrup can be substituted for honey for a different flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat gently before serving.
