Serves: 8
Ingredients
-
2
pounds multi color carrots, peeled and trimmed
-
1/2
cup water
-
2
tablespoons butter
-
1
tablespoon honey
-
1
tablespoon agave nectar
-
1
pinch sea salt
-
handfuls walnuts (optional)
-
1
tablespoon chopped parsley
-
Balsamic Glaze (for drizzling)
Directions
- Place carrots in a large saute pan with the water, over high heat.
- Add butter, honey, and agave nectar to the pan. Bring to a boil.
- Turn heat to med- low, and cover the carrots.
- Cook for about 12 -14 minutes, giving the pan a shake once in awhile to let carrots evenly glaze. The butter/agave/honey will start to caramelize as the carrots become softer. Add water if needed.
- Turn off heat, and sprinkle a little sea salt over carrots, then drizzle carrots with balsamic glaze.
- Garnish with parsley and walnuts, and serve.
