Glazed Carrots
A delicious and easy stove top recipe for Brown Sugar Glazed Carrots. These sweet and buttery carrots are a scrumptious side dish.
Servings 4 cups
Ingredients
- 2 pounds of carrots which is about 4 cups of carrots cut into 1/2 inch slices
- 4 tbsp butter
- 4 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup water
- 1 - 2 tbsp fresh sliced green onions
Instructions
- Peel, then cut the carrots into 1/2 inch slices. I like to cut mine on a bias.
- Place the carrots into a skillet or shallow pan, and add the butter, brown sugar, salt and water.
- Bring the mixture to a light boil, then reduce to medium heat.
- Stir often.
- Cook until the liquid has reduced into a syrup like glaze and the carrots are tender. This should take about 10-15 minutes. The carrots should be easily pierced with a fork when they're done.
- Serve immediately with the chopped fresh green onion.
- Feel free to add fresh ground pepper, to taste, before serving.
