Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups carrots
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 cup water
Instructions
Peel and slice the carrots into evenly-sized rounds, about 1/4-inch thick, to ensure even cooking.
In a medium-sized skillet, bring the cup of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced carrots to the boiling water. Reduce heat to medium, cover the skillet, and cook for 8-10 minutes or until the carrots are tender but not mushy. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Carefully drain any remaining water from the skillet using a lid or strainer.
Reduce heat to low and add the butter to the skillet. Stir until the butter has melted and coats the carrots evenly.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
Sprinkle the fresh dill, salt, and black pepper over the carrots. Toss gently to combine.
Remove from heat and transfer the dill carrots to a serving dish. Serve immediately and enjoy!
