2 tbsp unsalted butter
3 tbsp packed light brown sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Brown-sugar replacements vary in moisture, spread, and browning, so follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Place the baby carrots in a large skillet and add just enough cold water to cover them by about ½ inch (roughly ¾ cup). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a steady simmer and cook for 8–10 minutes, until the carrots are just tender when pierced with a fork but still hold their shape.
2
Drain the carrots and return the skillet to medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, swirling the pan to coat the bottom.
