Ingredients

  • 2 pounds carrots peeled & sliced 1/4 inch thick
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar packed
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 clove garlic smashed and minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley to garnish

Instructions

  • Add sliced carrots, brown sugar, honey and garlic to a medium sized frying pan. Stir to combine and coat the carrots.
  • Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring regularly, until tender.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

  • Add the butter and brown sugar before the carrots and allow the butter to melt and the sugar to dissolve. This will make it easier to coat the carrots.
  • Store the cooked carrots in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Freeze for up to 1 month.
  • If you don’t want to use sliced carrots, you can always use baby carrots. Just be sure to cut them in half.
  • Sprinkle with lemon juice before serving if you want to add some tartness.
