HONEY-GLAZED CARROTS



Honey-Glazed Carrots image

These sweet, citrusy carrots are an ideal accompaniment to savory, hearty main dishes, like Ebony's stewed chicken and dumplings from the magazine's first food editor, Freda DeKnight. This adaptation streamlines the usage of a pot and baking dish in the original and requires only a single ovenproof skillet. The dish tastes just the same and reflects Ms. DeKnight's commitment to fresh ingredients and vibrants flavors in her cooking.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 40m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 to 8 carrots, peeled
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon butter
Salt
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Fill an ovenproof skillet that can fit the carrots with 1 to 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add the carrots and add more water if needed to cover the carrots. Reduce the heat to simmer the carrots until they're tender but not soft, about 15 minutes.
  • Pour the water out of the skillet, keeping the carrots in the skillet by holding them back with a spatula. Add the juice, honey and butter to the skillet and stir to mix (the butter may not melt all the way). Roll the carrots in the mixture, season them with salt and transfer to the oven.
  • Bake, gently rolling the carrots once, until the carrots are glazed, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt and sprinkle with parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for carrots that are firm and smooth, with no blemishes or bruises. Smaller carrots will cook more evenly than larger ones.
  • Wash and peel the carrots: Scrub the carrots clean under running water, then peel them with a vegetable peeler.
  • Cut the carrots into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If you are using a variety of colors of carrots, cut them into different shapes to make the dish more visually appealing.
  • Toss the carrots with olive oil, salt, and pepper: This will help them caramelize and brown in the skillet.
  • Roast the carrots in a hot skillet: Use a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the carrots and spread them out in a single layer. Cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender and caramelized.
  • Add herbs and spices: For extra flavor, add herbs and spices to the skillet with the carrots. Some good options include rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, and paprika.
  • Serve the carrots immediately: Roasted carrots are best served hot out of the skillet. They can be enjoyed as a side dish, or as a snack.

Conclusion:

Skillet-roasted carrots are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed all year round. They are simple to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect skillet-roasted carrots every time.
