Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound carrots
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1.5 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the carrots and cut them into uniform-sized sticks or rounds, approximately 1/4-inch thick.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the carrots to the skillet and sauté for 5−7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to become tender.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the Dijon glaze over the carrots in the skillet, tossing to coat evenly.
Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Let the carrots cook for an additional 5−7 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and the glaze has thickened slightly.
Remove from heat and transfer the glazed carrots to a serving dish.
Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
