Equipment
- Cutting board
- Knife

- 12” Skillet
Ingredients
- 2 pounds carrots peeled and sliced on a diagonal
- 4 tablespoons butter
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt divided
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme plus extra for garnish
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Peel the carrots and slice them diagonally into similar-sized pieces. Cut the thinner ends into 1-inch pieces and the thicker ends into about ½-inch slices.
- Place sliced carrots in a large skillet or pot. Add salt and enough water to cover the carrots. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat. Cook until tender, about 10 - 15 minutes.
- Drain carrots and set aside. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat, cooking until it just starts to brown, about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in honey and thyme, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Return carrots to the skillet. Add remaining ½ teaspoon salt and pepper, stirring to coat. Cook an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Garnish with fresh thyme and serve warm.
