Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams carrots
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel and slice the carrots into uniform rounds or sticks, approximately 1/4-inch thick, for even cooking.
Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and the sliced carrots.
Cook the carrots for 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly firm. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the honey to the melted butter and stir until well combined to create a glaze.
Add the cooked carrots to the skillet and toss them gently to coat evenly with the butter and honey mixture.
Season the carrots with salt and black pepper to taste.
Cook the carrots for an additional 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and glossy.
Transfer the honey-glazed carrots to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy these delicious Honey Carrots That Are Yummy!
