How to Make Brown Sugar Glazed Carrots
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cut carrots diagonally into 1/4-inch thick slices.
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Add carrots and cook for 5 minutes, or until crisp-tender.
- Drain carrots and rinse under cold water to stop cooking process.
- Pat carrots completely dry with paper towels. This is crucial for proper browning.
- Melt butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
- Add sliced onion and cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes, until softened.
- Stir in apple juice and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add the cooked carrots, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Gently toss to coat in the glaze.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the glaze is slightly caramelized and thickened.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy!
