I’ve been on a health kick by adding more vegetables to my diet, and these Honey Soy Glazed carrots are the perfect recipe!

The fiber in carrots can help keep blood sugar levels under control, plus carrots are packed with vitamin A and beta-carotene!

You can use any carrots of your choice, I like to use peeled organic carrots, but baby carrots will also work too! The most crucial step when preparing carrots is salting the water.

Blanch the carrots for 3 minutes, and let them rest in ice water. This will give the carrots a nice crunchy texture. 

The star of my honey soy glazed carrots is my sauce, which only takes 3 minutes to make!

You only need soy sauce, honey, butter, and red chili flakes. You can skip the red chili flakes if you don’t like spice.

The soy sauce is the secret ingredient, which gives the sauce a savory and umami flavor.

This sauce honestly tastes fantastic with everything, and you can also use it with broccoli, asparagus, and even potatoes!
