Ingredients
1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Place the sliced carrots in a medium saucepan and cover with water.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat and cook the carrots for 5 to 7 minutes, or until they are just tender but still crisp.
Drain the carrots and set aside.
In the same saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the honey and brown sugar to the melted butter and stir until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Add the cooked carrots to the saucepan and toss to coat them evenly with the glaze.
Cook the carrots in the glaze for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and the glaze has thickened.
Season with salt and ground black pepper, and stir to combine.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
