4 servings
- 1 lb baby carrots
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp packed light brown sugar
- 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.

Drain the carrots and return the skillet to medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, swirling the pan to coat the bottom.
