Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

In a saucepan, combine carrots and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-high and simmer until carrots are tender-crisp, about 8-10 minutes. Drain well and set aside.

02

Step
1 mins

In a large skillet, melt butter over low heat. Stir in honey, lemon juice, and ginger.

03

Step
5 mins

Increase heat to medium. Add drained carrots to the skillet and toss gently to coat evenly with the honey-lemon glaze. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the glaze has thickened and the carrots are beautifully glazed, about 3-5 minutes.

For an extra touch of elegance, sprinkle the glazed carrots with freshly chopped parsley or a pinch of sea salt before serving.
Feel free to adjust the amount of honey and lemon juice to suit your taste preferences. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a delightful hint of heat.
These glazed carrots are a versatile side dish that pairs well with roasted chicken, grilled salmon, or even a vegetarian main course.
