Glazed Carrots
The perfect side dish to any meat entrée. Super simple either on top of the stove or roasted in the oven - couldn't get easier. For large crowds this recipe multiplies beautifully. These measurements are a side vegetable for about 6-8 people.
Ingredients
- 1-1½ lbs Carrots
- 2 oz Water
- 2 oz Orange Juice (or the zest & juice of one orange)
- ¼ cup Brown Sugar
- ¼ cup Dijon Mustard
- 1 tsp Salt
- ½ tsp Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tsp Sugar
Instructions
- Peel and wash carrots. Use fresh and slice into desired size or buy baby carrots and rinse and dry. Place in oven roasting pan or large fry pan with cover.
- Add Water (just to create steam), Orange Juice, Brown Sugar, Dijon Mustard, Salt, Black Pepper, Onion Powder and Sugar. Toss everything to coat well.
- Place pan uncovered in 350℉ oven for 45-50 minutes or until carrots are tender and golden or cover fry pan and cook on medium heat until carrots are tender and golden. Both methods work well.
- Let carrots rest for 5 minutes before serving so glaze can set a bit.
