- colander 
- half-sheet pan 
- Paper Towels 
- Large Skillet 
- 2 lbs Baby Carrots
- ½ c Water
- 4 tbs Unsalted Butter
- 2 tbs Light Brown Sugar
- 2 tbs Honey
- ½ teaspoon Table Salt
- ½ teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
- 1 tbs Fresh Parsley minced
- Place the baby carrots in a colander set in your kitchen sink and rinse with cool water. Then, line a half-sheet pan with paper towels and pour the carrots out onto the paper towels. Spread the carrots out into an even layer and allow them to dry. 
- Place the washed carrots and ½ cup of water in a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the table salt and cook, stirring frequently, for 12-15 minutes, until the water has fully evaporated and the carrots are beginning to soften. 
- Add the butter, brown sugar, and honey. Stir to melt the butter and dissolve the sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 25-30 minutes until the sauce has reduced to a thick glaze and the carrots are fork-tender. 
- Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and some minced parsley. Serve and enjoy!
