Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 lb baby carrots
1/2 c light brown sugar, packed
1/2 tsp salt
1/8-1/4 tsp nutmeg (optional)
1 Tbsp butter
1/4 c orange marmalade
1 Tbsp grand marnier (orange liqueur)

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium-size saucepan, add carrots and enough water to cook. Cook over medium-high heat until tender. When cooked, pour off most of the water but RESERVE ABOUT 3/4 CUP.
  • 2. In a small mixing bowl, combine sugar, nutmeg if using, salt, butter, orange marmalade, & orange liqueur.
  • 3. Pour mixture over carrots then add reserved liquid, then stir.
  • 4. Let simmer for 4 to 5 minutes over low heat. Stir to avoid sticking.
  • 5. Special Note: You may substitute honey for the marmalade if desired, and use rum or bourbon instead of the liqueur. Garnish with orange slices, orange wedges or orange cups & a sprig of mint if desired.

I'm not a big fan of glazed carrots, but these were surprisingly good. The orange glaze was light and flavorful, and the carrots were still a little crunchy.

I accidentally used regular oranges instead of navel oranges, but the glaze still turned out great. The carrots were a bit tart, but I liked that.

These glazed carrots were an absolute hit at my last dinner party. The orange glaze was perfectly balanced between sweet and tangy, and the carrots retained a slight crunch that added a delightful texture.
