Step by Step Method

Step 1

In a heavy bottom skillet (don't use non-stick for this recipe), melt 1 tablespoon butter with oil. Add baby carrots and saute over medium high heat, stirring often.

Step 2

Add salt, whole peeled garlic cloves and ginger when the carrots have become lightly browned. Continue to saute, watching that the carrots don't scorch but continue until they take on a roasted but not blacked color. Do not allow garlic to burn, once it has toasted, crush it into the oil/butter with a fork, and push any remaining bits to the side of the pan away from the heat.

Step 3

Stir in honey and remaining butter, mixing until the butter has melted. Season to taste with more salt if needed and pepper.

I made this recipe in my cast iron skillet...on the grill! Moving the skillet from direct to indirect heat as needed, made the whole roasting process a snap. The smoke from the chicken I was grilling at the same time, added a layer of flavor that we thought was amazing. Thank you for posting this wonderful recipe Rainbow_2, it's one we'll use often.

They take a little care while cooking to be sure they don't brown too much. I cooked them slow over low medium heat. The end effort is well worth the care they needed. Great flavour from the combination of ginger, garlic and honey. Do again for sure
