How to Make Apricot And Tarragon Baby Carrots

  1. Wash and trim 1 pound of baby carrots.
  2. Steam or boil the carrots until tender-crisp, about 8-10 minutes. Test with a fork; they should be easily pierced but still hold their shape.
  3. While the carrots are cooking, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup apricot preserves, 2 tablespoons tarragon vinegar, 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon, finely chopped, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Drain the cooked carrots and transfer them to a large bowl.
  5. Pour the apricot-tarragon glaze over the hot carrots and gently toss to coat evenly.
  6. Serve immediately as a vibrant and flavorful side dish.
