Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt
1 pound baby carrots, tops removed but with a little green left attached (it's cute)
4 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 clove garlic, smashed
3 sprigs thyme, picked
Pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil. Set up a bowl of well-salted ice water. Blanch the carrots in the boiling water. When they are cooked but still have some crunch, plunge them immediately into the ice water. When cool, use a clean tea towel to rub the skin off the carrots. Reserve.
  • To a large skillet add the butter, sugar, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, cayenne and about 1/2 cup of water. Bring the pan to medium heat swirling occasionally. When most of the water has reduced and the mixture seems homogenous, removed the garlic and add the carrots and stir until they are coated. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes or until the carrots are completely coated and hot.
  • So good for my eyes!

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh baby carrots. If you can't find them, you can use regular carrots, but be sure to peel and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
  • To make sure the carrots are evenly coated in the glaze, toss them in a bowl before adding them to the baking sheet.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. If you do, the carrots won't cook evenly.
  • Be careful not to overcook the carrots. They should be tender but still have a bit of a bite to them.
  • If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can substitute yellow mustard or whole-grain mustard.
  • For a sweeter glaze, add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup.
  • For a spicier glaze, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
  • Serve the carrots immediately, while they're still warm and glazed. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These glazed baby carrots with Dijon mustard are a delicious and easy side dish that's perfect for any occasion. They're sweet, savory, and slightly tangy, and they're sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give these carrots a try!
