Ingredients

• 1 pound Carrots
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 0.5 cup Dry Marsala wine
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 3 tablespoons Pine nuts
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and trim the carrots. Slice them diagonally into 1/4-inch thick rounds for an elegant presentation.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and frothy.

Step 3

Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and develop a light golden color.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another minute, stirring frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.

Step 5

Pour the Marsala wine into the skillet, followed by the honey, fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together to coat the carrots evenly.

Step 6

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook uncovered for 8-10 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the wine has reduced to a glossy glaze that coats the vegetables.

Step 7

While the carrots are cooking, toast the pine nuts. Heat a small dry skillet over medium heat, add the pine nuts, and toast for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 8

Once the carrots are cooked through and well-glazed, remove the skillet from heat.

Step 9

Transfer the Marsala-glazed carrots to a serving dish. Sprinkle the toasted pine nuts over the top and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your gluten-free Marsala Glazed Carrots with Pinenuts as a delicious side dish.
