How to Make Brown Sugar Glazed Carrots
This carrot recipe will come together quickly on the stovetop, ready to accompany all of your favorite entrees.
STEP ONE: Put the carrots, brown sugar, and butter in a pan over the stovetop and put on medium heat. Stir the carrots occasionally to make sure that they don’t burn.
PRO TIP:
The baby carrots are small enough that you can put the whole carrots into the pan as is. If you are using larger carrots, cut them into smaller pieces.
STEP TWO: Once the liquid reduces, caramelizes, and becomes more of a glaze, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
They’re ready to serve when the carrots are tender but not overcooked.
STEP THREE: Sprinkle in some chopped parsley to garnish.
