STOVE-TOP " GLAZED " CARROTS



Stove-Top

This definitely has a distinctive taste, unlike the ususal sweet glazes. I love that it doesn't require pre-cooking the carrots. Don't be tempted to add more dressing; the nice thing about this is that you don't need much.

GLAZED GRILLED CARROTS



Glazed Grilled Carrots image

These glazed carrots, from Karen and Quinn Hatfield of the Los Angeles restaurant Odys and Penelope, are caramelized and sweetened from a quick hot turn on the grill, then tossed in a salty dressing of soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, garlic and ginger. Turning the carrots often and moving them around on the grill keeps them from burning. And if your carrots are burning but aren't yet cooked through, transfer them to a baking sheet and finish cooking in a 400-degree oven.

Provided by Jeff Gordinier

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 clove garlic, cut into paper-thin slices
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for the carrots
10 medium carrots, peeled, trimmed and cut in half lengthwise
Salt
1 green onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, rosemary, garlic and ginger until combined. Whisk in 2 tablespoons oil so dressing emulsifies; set aside.
  • Heat grill to low. Coat carrots with oil and season with salt. Grill carrots, covered, turning as needed to prevent burning, until nicely charred and fork tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • When carrots come off the grill, toss them immediately in the prepared dressing. Once they're coated, use tongs to transfer the carrots to a serving platter and garnish with green onion. Drizzle a few spoonfuls of the remaining dressing over the top.
