Candied Carrots Brown Sugar Honey (Print Version)

Baby carrots, brown sugar, and honey combine for a rich, sweet glaze. Finish with fresh cracked pepper and parsley.

# Ingredients:

→ Produce

01 - 1 pound baby carrots, patted dry
02 - 2 teaspoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped

→ Dairy

03 - 1/4 cup salted butter

→ Pantry

04 - 1/4 cup water
05 - 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
06 - 1/4 cup pure honey
07 - 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

# Steps:

01 - Add baby carrots, water, salted butter, dark brown sugar, and honey to a 10-inch skillet. Place over medium heat, cover, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
02 - Remove lid and increase heat to medium-high. Stir occasionally and continue cooking for an additional 8 to 10 minutes or until carrots are fork tender and the glaze has reduced and thickened.
03 - Incorporate cracked black pepper and gently toss to coat. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving hot.

# Notes:

01 - Patting the carrots dry before cooking helps the glaze adhere better and keeps the sauce from thinning.
