Preparation

Step 1

In a large pan, bring the butter and water to a boil over high heat. Add the carrots and reduce the heat to a simmer. Allow the water to reduce by half, then add the orange juice and honey. Continue to simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the carrots are tender. Remove the carrots and set aside.

Raise the heat and reduce the liquid to about 1/2 cup. The liquid should be thick. Return the carrots to the pan and toss with the liquid. Season with white pepper and serve.

This recipe yields 4 servings. Serving size: about 1/2 cup.
