How to Make Apple Cider Glazed Carrots

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 1 pound of carrots, peeled and sliced, and sauté until carrots begin to brown slightly, about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour in 1 cup of apple cider, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon of fresh tarragon (or 1/2 teaspoon dried). Bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the carrots are tender and the liquid is reduced to a thick glaze, stirring occasionally, about 12-15 minutes.
  5. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Garnish with extra fresh tarragon sprigs if desired.
