Equipment

  • colander
  • half-sheet pan
  • Paper Towels
  • Large Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 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

Instructions
 

  • 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!
  • Yield 8 servings
