Honey Glazed Carrots: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe You’ll Adore


  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pound baby carrots (or regular carrots, peeled and sliced)
– 3 tablespoons honey
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your delicious Honey Glazed Carrots:

1. Prepare Carrots: If using regular carrots, peel and slice them into ¼-inch thick rounds. If using baby carrots, rinse them under cold water.
2. Cook Carrots: In a large pot, bring water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and cook for 5-7 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and set aside.
3. Melt Butter: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it is bubbly but not browned.
4. Add Honey: Once the butter has melted, add the honey and stir to combine.
5. Season: Add salt and black pepper to the honey-butter mixture, stirring well.
6. Combine Carrots: Add the cooked carrots to the skillet. Toss gently to coat them evenly with the honey glaze.
7. Cook Further: Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the carrots to absorb the flavors and the glaze to thicken slightly.
8. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle fresh parsley on top for a pop of color and flavor before serving.

These steps will guide you in creating Honey Glazed Carrots that are not only easy to make but also incredibly flavorful.
