Wash and peel the carrots, then slice them into thin rounds about 1/4-inch thick.
Finely mince the garlic and set aside. Chop the fresh parsley for garnish.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil, allowing the butter to melt completely.
Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to coat them evenly with the butter and oil mixture.
Add the minced garlic and continue to sauté for another 1-2 minutes, until the garlic becomes fragrant.
Pour the dry white wine into the skillet, followed by the fresh thyme leaves. Stir well to combine.
Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid. Let the carrots simmer for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and the wine has reduced.
Remove the lid and season the carrots with salt and ground black pepper. Stir well to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Transfer the sautéed carrots to a serving dish and sprinkle with the chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve warm as a side dish to complement meats, poultry, or seafood.
