Description

This Glazed Carrots recipe combines sweet and savory flavors for a perfect side dish. With just a few ingredients, these tender, juicy carrots coated in a rich glaze will be the star of your meal.


Ingredients

  • Carrots: 1 lb, peeled and cut
  • Butter: 2 tablespoons
  • Brown Sugar: 2 tablespoons
  • Honey: 1 tablespoon
  • Garlic: 1 clove, minced
  • Salt: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Pepper: 1/4 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. Peel and cut the carrots into even pieces.
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the carrots and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add the brown sugar, honey, garlic, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir to coat the carrots in the glaze.
  4. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing the glaze to thicken and the carrots to become tender.
  5. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

  • For dairy-free, substitute butter with olive oil.
  • If the glaze becomes too thick, add a splash of water to loosen it up.
  • For a different flavor, try adding cinnamon or nutmeg to the glaze.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
