Ingredients

  • 1 pound carrots, approximately 7 medium, peeled and cut on the bias 1/4-inch thick
  • 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) unsalted butter
  • Heavy pinch kosher salt
  • 1 cup good-quality ginger ale
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves

Directions

In a 12-inch saute pan over medium heat, combine the carrots, butter, salt and ginger ale. Cover and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, remove the lid, stir, and reduce the heat to low. Cover again and cook for 5 minutes. Remove the lid, add the chili powder and increase the heat to high. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the ginger ale is reduced to a glaze, approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Pour into a serving dish and sprinkle with the parsley. Serve immediately.

    WONDERFUL CARROTS

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    My sister-in-law made these for a family get-together and we all loved them. I got the recipe myself and made them for my... own family (hubby, 1yr old and 4yr old). They love them (using Vernor's soda) and this is the only way I make them now. They have just the right texture and sweetness. Also, I don't usually have fresh herbs on hand so I just use 1 teaspoon of dried parsley and that works just fine. YUM!Read more

    Best ever!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    These carrots cannot be beat--inexpensive, simple AND delicious! Made this recipe for the first time tonight and it... definitely won't be the last! I took this dish to a carry-in. I was a little concerned because the recipe said to serve immediately. Mine weren't eaten until 1-1/2 hours after I made them. They will still great! So, the carrots keep well without getting mushy. Also, the carrots were just sweet enough--not overly sweet. I'm thrilled that I've added another recipe to my repertoire!Read more

    This is the first time I've made glazed carrots and my wife loved them. So easy to make and I am sure anyone with kids would... love the sweet glaze. This recipe is a keeper and I cant wait to make these for my family and friends!Read more
