Ingredients:

1/2 cup chicken gravy
120g
2 tbsp butter
27g
7 carrots
430g
1 tbsp honey
20g
1 tsp salt
6g
1/4 tsp black pepper
0.52g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Carrots:
- Start by peeling the carrots and cutting them into evenly-sized rounds or sticks to ensure they cook uniformly.
- Set the carrots aside.
2. Cook the Carrots:
- 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.
3. Add the Honey:
- 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.
4. Season and Glaze:
- 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.
5. Simmer:
- 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.
6. Serve:
- 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.

Enjoy the delightful contrast of sweet honey and savory chicken gravy on perfectly tender carrots. This dish is a simple yet delicious addition to any meal, sure to be a hit with family and friends.
