- 2 pounds whole carrots scrubbed and sliced in half lengthwise ½ inch (1 cm) thick and wide
- ⅓ cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Morton kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon finely ground black pepper
Melt butter over medium heat in a pot. Add brown sugar, ketchup, worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper, stirring occasionally, until a sauce forms.
Turn heat to medium high, and add in carrots. Cook covered, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, about 12–16 minutes. The carrots will still be slightly crunchy.
Transfer the carrots to a serving dish then pour the excess glaze on top. Serve immediately.
Keep Warm: Immediately, cover the serving tray with foil after you’re done cooking. This will keep the carrots warm for 30 minutes.
Leftovers: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 6 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop until heated through.
