How to Make Honey Ginger Glazed Carrots
- Wash and trim 1 pound of carrots.
- In a medium saucepan, combine carrots, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until carrots are almost tender, about 10 minutes.
- While carrots simmer, prepare the glaze: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup honey and 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger. Cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
- Add the cooked carrots to the skillet and stir to coat with the honey-ginger mixture.
- Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are glazed and glossy.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup orange juice, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon tapioca starch.
- Pour the orange juice mixture into the skillet with the carrots. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of black pepper.
- Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 3 minutes.
- Serve immediately as a delicious side dish.
