Ingredients
- 1 pound carrots, peeled and trimmed (aim for evenly sized carrots; cut carrots into halves or quarters if needed)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Add the carrots to a skillet along with the olive oil, salt, and ground black pepper. Over medium heat, fry the carrots for 5 minutes on each side. Refrain from moving the carrots around too much while they are frying. Leaving them to fry will help to brown them slightly.
- Once the carrots are fork tender, remove them from the skillet and transfer them to a plate. Set them aside.
- Next, add the butter and garlic to the skillet. Fry the garlic for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and lightly browned.
- Add the honey to the skillet and stir to incorporate into the butter and garlic.
- Lastly, add the carrots back to the skillet and toss them gently to coat with the honey. Allow the carrots to reheat in the honey garlic sauce for 2 minutes. Plate, garnish, and serve immediately.
