Try to keep the size of your carrot “sticks” as consistent as possible so they cook at about the same rate; err on the smaller size if you have to.Serves two to three as a side dish. {(rater>id=100|name=recipes:gingery_sauteed_carrots|type=rate|headline=off)} |**Preheat:** °|**Yield:** 4 servings|| |**Prep:** 0:05|**Wait:** 0:00|**Cook:** 0:10| ====== Ingredients ====== * 1 tbsp maple syrup * 1 tbsp lime juice (about ½ lime) * 2 tbsp unsalted butter * 1 tbsp olive oil * 1 lb/450g carrots (I used 3 large), peeled and cut into 4” long sticks, 1/3” thick * Kosher salt * 1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated ====== Directions ====== - Combine the maple syrup and lime juice in a small cup and have it right by the stove…the glazing at the end of the dish doesn’t take more than 30 seconds, so you want to be ready. - In a non stick skillet, over medium-high heat, melt 1 tbsp butter with oil. When the butter is melted, add the carrots and toss until they are well coated with the butter/oil mix. Cook until the carrots are well browned and tender. Toss occasionally. This should take about 6-10 minutes. - Reduce the heat to low and add the ginger and remaining tbsp of butter. Cook, stirring frequently until the butter has melted and the ginger gives off its fabulous aroma...30 seconds or so. Add the maple syrup mixture and cook, stirring until the carrots are glazed …again, less than 30 seconds. ====== Notes ====== * This is a great side with meatloaf, grilled meats, roasted chicken…the list is endless. /* Nutrition block - remove the slash-asterisk and asterisk-slash from just above and below the following block */ /* ====== Nutrition ====== |Calories (kcal): |Fat Calories (kcal): |Cholesterol (mg): |[[recipes:notes:nutrition guidelines |(Guide)]] | |Fat (g): |Saturated Fat (g): |Mono Fat (g): |Poly Fat (g): | |Protein (g): |Carbohydrates (g): |Sodium (mg): |Fiber (g): | */ {{tag>Recipes Side/Vegetable FineCooking }} /* Recipe Tags - Copy and paste tags from the list below to the tag list in the above line, replacing the "TagsNeeded" tag and separated by spaces. */ /* ---Recipe Types--- Appetizer Beverage Beverage/Cocktail Beverage/Liquor-Mixer Bread Bread/Biscuit-Roll Bread/Muffin Bread/Quickbread Brines-Marinades-Rubs Breakfast Casserole Canning-Freezing Condiment Dessert Dessert/Bar-Brownie Dessert/Cake Dessert/Cake/Frosting Dessert/Candy-Chocolate Dessert/Crisp-Buckle Dessert/Cookie Dessert/Custard-Curd Dessert/IceCream Dessert/Pie Dessert/Pie/Crust Dessert/Topping Dip-Spread Entertaining Fondue Grilling-BBQ Grilling-BBQ/BBQSauce Holiday Kid-Friendly MainDish MainDish/Beef MainDish/Poultry MainDish/Pork MainDish/Seafood Pasta-Rice Pizza Roast Salad Salad/Dressing Sandwich Sauce-Gravy Sausage-Pate Seasoning Side FineCooking SlowCooker Snack Soup Stew-Braise Stir-Fry Vegetarian ---Recipe Cuisines--- American American/Cajun-Creole American/Southern American/TexMex Asian Asian/Chinese Asian/Indian Asian/Japanese Asian/Korean Asian/Thai Asian/Vietnamese European European/Belgian European/Czech European/Dutch European/English European/French European/German European/Greek European/Polish European/Irish European/Italian European/Portuguese European/Russian European/Scandinavian European/Spanish European/Swiss Latin Latin/Brazilian Latin/Mexican MiddleEastern MiddleEastern/Ethiopian MiddleEastern/Jewish MiddleEastern/Lebanese ---Recipe Sources--- 365Recipes 365Recipes/Grilling 365Recipes/Chicken 365Recipes/Pasta AmericasTestKitchen AmericasTestKitchen/CooksCountry AmericasTestKitchen/CooksIllustrated BetterHomesGarden BonAppetit Chowhound FineCooking FoodWine GoodEats Gourmet Jennivines MilkStreet HDawson LMaidment TMaidment AMarcos DMarcos JMarcos KMarcos JPhalen DPendergast ---Recipe Ratings--- 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1★ No★ ---Recipe Alerts--- RecipeNeeded RecipeIncomplete RecipeWrong RecipeFails TagsNeeded */ ~~DISCUSSION~~
