Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt
1 pound baby carrots, tops removed but with a little green left attached (it's cute)
4 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 clove garlic, smashed
3 sprigs thyme, picked
Pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil. Set up a bowl of well-salted ice water. Blanch the carrots in the boiling water. When they are cooked but still have some crunch, plunge them immediately into the ice water. When cool, use a clean tea towel to rub the skin off the carrots. Reserve.
  • To a large skillet add the butter, sugar, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, cayenne and about 1/2 cup of water. Bring the pan to medium heat swirling occasionally. When most of the water has reduced and the mixture seems homogenous, removed the garlic and add the carrots and stir until they are coated. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes or until the carrots are completely coated and hot.
  • So good for my eyes!

HONEY-GLAZED BABY CARROTS



Honey-Glazed Baby Carrots image

Categories     Vegetable     Side     Steam     Carrot     Honey     Gourmet

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/4 pounds baby carrots, trimmed and peeled
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a steamer set over boiling water steam the carrots for 4 to 8 minutes, or until they are just tender, and transfer them to a bowl. In a skillet melt the butter with the honey and the lemon juice, stirring until the mixture is smooth, and add the carrots. Cook the mixture over moderately low heat, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the carrots are glazed evenly and heated through, and season it with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Baby carrots are a great option for this recipe because they are small and tender, and they cook quickly.
  • If you don't have baby carrots, you can use regular carrots. Just peel and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
  • You can use any type of honey for this recipe, but I recommend using a light-colored honey, such as clover honey or orange blossom honey.
  • If you don't have brown sugar, you can substitute granulated sugar.
  • You can use any type of vegetable oil for this recipe, but I recommend using olive oil or avocado oil.
  • If you don't have a baking sheet, you can use a large skillet.
  • Be sure to watch the carrots closely while they are roasting. They can burn easily.

Conclusion:

These honey-glazed baby carrots are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be served with any meal. They're easy to make and can be roasted in the oven or cooked on the stovetop. So next time you're looking for a tasty and nutritious side dish, give these honey-glazed baby carrots a try!
