Tips:

- Cut the carrots evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Cut the carrots into 2-inch pieces or baby carrots.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the carrots, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
- Use a good quality glaze: The glaze is what gives these carrots their delicious flavor. Use a glaze that you enjoy and that complements the taste of the carrots.
