Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, sesame seeds, salt, and pepper to create the glaze for the carrots.

  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to become tender.

  3. Pour the shoyu glaze over the carrots in the skillet, stirring gently to ensure the carrots are evenly coated.

  4. Continue cooking the carrots for another 5-7 minutes, or until they are fork-tender and the glaze has thickened and coated the carrots beautifully.

  5. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the carrots sit for a minute to absorb the flavors.

  6. Transfer the shoyu glazed carrots to a serving dish, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color, and serve hot as a delicious and impressive side dish.
