Glazed Carrots Recipe

The glaze for this glazed carrots recipe is produced by reducing a mixture of chicken stock, butter, and sugar until it's thick and syrupy. You could also use veal stock. Some good suggestions for what herbs to use would be fresh mint, thyme, oregano, tarragon, or parsley. This glazed carrots recipe is perfect for serving with roasted chicken or turkey. It's generally a good idea not to add salt to a dish until right before serving it, and this recipe is a perfect case for why. Since the cooking liquid (the stock) will be reduced to a thick syrup, adding salt too early will only concentrate the saltiness. Salting at the end ensures that the salt doesn't overpower the dish.
