Place the sliced carrots in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until the carrots are just tender. Drain and set aside.
In the same saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the honey, salt, and black pepper to the melted butter. Stir to combine and heat until the mixture is bubbly.
Return the drained carrots to the saucepan. Stir well to coat the carrots evenly with the honey butter glaze.
Cook the carrots in the glaze for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens and the carrots are tender and shiny.
Remove from heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice.
Transfer the honey glazed carrots to a serving dish and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
