Whiskey Glazed Carrots

Ingredients

• • 8 carrots
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter or pareve margarine
  • 2 tablespoons whiskey
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt (plus more to taste)

Instructions

1. Peel the carrots (or scrub them thoroughly) an slice on the diagonal into 1/4-inch thick coins. Place them in a 10-inch skillet and cover with water. Add the 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt to the water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until crisp-tender, about 10 minutes.
2. Drain the carrots. Put them back into the skillet and place over medium-high heat. Push the carrots to one side of the skillet and add the butter/margarine, whiskey, and sugar to the other side of the skillet, stirring to combine (but not stirring into the carrots).
3. Once the butter, sugar, and whiskey have combined and formed a bit of a syrup, stir in the carrots. Cook until lightly browned. Add more salt to taste and serve immediately.
