Orlesian Honey Carrots

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds baby carrots

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Salt

  • Freshly ground black pepper

  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth

  • Juice of 1 lemon

  • 2 tablespoons honey

  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

  • 3 to 4 sprigs thyme, leaves plucked

Directions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the carrots and brown on all sides, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Deglaze with the vegetable broth and stir in the lemon juice. Cover and cook the carrots until they are firm to the bite, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Remove the lid when the cooking time is over. Drizzle the carrots with the honey and balasamic vinegar and thyme and stir to combine. This should form a glaze, but if it seems too liquidy, cook with the cover off for another 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Season with additional salt, pepper and lemon juice as desired.
