Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Lemon Honey Carrots.
Step 1
To start, grab a saucepan and fill it with baby carrots, adding enough water to cover them completely.
Step 2
Bring the water to a lively boil, then lower the heat to medium-high and let the carrots simmer until they’re tender, which should take about 10 minutes.
Step 3
Once they’re perfectly cooked, drain the carrots and set them aside, ready for their delicious transformation.
Step 4
Next, take a large skillet and melt some butter over low heat, allowing it to become beautifully golden.
Step 5
Once the butter is melted, stir in the honey, blending it until it’s smooth and well combined.
Step 6
Now, add a splash of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of ground ginger, mixing everything together until it’s a delightful, fragrant concoction.
Step 7
Turn up the heat to medium and gently add the drained carrots to the skillet.
Step 8
Give them a good stir, ensuring each carrot is generously coated in that luscious honey-lemon glaze.
Step 9
Keep cooking for about 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens and clings to the carrots, creating a sweet and tangy finish that’s simply irresistible.
Step 10
Enjoy your beautifully glazed baby carrots as a vibrant side dish that’s sure to impress!.
