Ingredients

6 servings

2 lbs carrots (peeled and cut into diagonal, 1/4-inch-thick slices)
⅓ cup water
1 tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp ground black pepper
1 tbsp unsalted butter (use coconut oil to make vegan)
1 tbsp honey or pure maple syrup (optional)
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs of choice: ( parsley, dill, and thyme are all delicious)

Instructions

In a large saute pan or deep skillet with a tight-fitting lid, place the carrots, water, salt, and pepper. Bring the water to a boil, then cover the pan and reduce the heat to medium low. Cook for 7 to 8 minutes, until the carrots just reach fork tender (don’t let them turn mushy).
Uncover, add the butter and honey, and stir and cook until the water evaporates (and the coconut oil melts, if using). Remove the pan from the heat.
Stir in the herbs. Add a finishing sprinkle of salt or pepper to taste. Enjoy hot.
