How to cook deliciously - Steamed Carrots With Hot Honey Butter

1. Stage

Fill a pot with 2" of water and put a steamer insert inside. Cover and bring the water to a simmer. Add the carrots, re-cover, and steam until tender to your liking, 15 minutes for crisp-tender or up to 25 minutes for very soft carrots.

2. Stage

Just before the carrots are finished, in a small bowl, combine butter, honey, lemon juice, pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt. Microwave until butter is melted, about 15 seconds. Stir well to combine.

3. Stage

Transfer carrots to a serving bowl or platter and pour butter mixture over top. Toss to coat, and sprinkle carrots with lemon zest and flaky salt, if desired.
