Ingredients
- 500 grams carrots
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 100 milliliters water
Directions
Step 1
Peel the carrots and slice them into evenly-sized rounds or batons, roughly 1/4-inch thick.
Step 2
In a large skillet or sauté pan, combine the water, butter, honey, and salt over medium heat. Stir gently until the butter is melted and the mixture is well combined.
Step 3
Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook the carrots for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender but still slightly firm to the bite.
Step 4
Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Allow the liquid to reduce and thicken, stirring frequently to coat the carrots in the glaze, about 3-5 minutes.
Step 5
Sprinkle the carrots with fresh thyme leaves, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Stir to combine and cook for 1 additional minute to allow the herbs to release their aroma.
Step 6
Remove the pan from heat and transfer the herbed carrots to a serving dish. Garnish with a bit more parsley if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
