Description
Tender, glossy, and sweet with just the right touch of buttery richness—glazed carrots are a classic side that never goes out of style. Whether you’re elevating a weeknight meal or adding color to a holiday spread, these carrots bring charm and flavor to the table.
Ingredients
1 lb carrots, peeled and sliced into ¼-inch rounds
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp brown sugar or honey
¼ tsp salt
Pinch of black pepper
Optional: fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
In a skillet, combine carrots with just enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil and cook until just tender, about 6–8 minutes. Drain well.
Return carrots to the skillet. Add butter, brown sugar (or honey), salt, and pepper.
Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until carrots are glossy and coated in glaze, about 5–7 minutes.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
