Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by peeling the carrots and cutting them into evenly-sized rounds or sticks to ensure they cook uniformly.
- Set the carrots aside.
- In a large saucepan or skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the prepared carrots to the pan, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, about 8-10 minutes.
- Once the carrots have softened, drizzle the honey over them.
- Stir well to coat the carrots evenly with the honey, allowing them to caramelize slightly for about 2-3 minutes.
- Pour the chicken gravy into the pan with the carrots.
- Season with salt and black pepper.
- Stir to combine all the ingredients, making sure the carrots are well-coated with the gravy and spices.
- Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the flavors have melded together.
- Transfer the honey-glazed carrots with chicken gravy and spices to a serving dish.
- They can be served as a side dish to complement any main course.
Tips:
- Make sure to peel and evenly slice the carrots for consistent cooking.
- Use fresh, high-quality honey for the best flavor.
- If the gravy seems too thick, you can thin it out with a little water or chicken broth.
- Consider garnishing with fresh parsley or chives for a pop of color and added freshness.
- Adjust the seasoning to your taste, adding more salt and pepper if necessary.
