Preparation

Step 1

In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook carrots in oil 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add pomegranate juice, cinnamon stick, salt and pepper. Simmer 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until carrots are tender and liquid is reduced to glaze-like consistency.

Add butter; cook 1 minute longer. Remove cinnamon stick before serving.

If you'd like, you can substitute unsweetened cranberry juice for pomegranate juice.
