How to Make Glazed Carrots

Start with 1.5 pounds of peeled and sliced carrots, quartered lengthwise.

Add 0.5 cups of orange juice to a shallow pan.

Add 1 tablespoon of butter, mashing it into little bits in the pan.

Mix the butter with the orange juice and add 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, giving it an initial toss.

Place the pan on the stove over medium heat and cover it.

Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cover, letting it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Check the carrots with a fork to see if they are tender but not falling apart.

Uncover the pan and let it cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes to reduce the glaze, keeping an eye on it to avoid overcooking.

Once the glaze has thickened and coats the carrots, turn off the heat and transfer to a serving dish, ensuring all carrots are coated.
