Notes

For extra flavor, add a splash of orange juice along with the honey. Use high-quality honey for the best flavor and do not overcrowd the skillet when cooking. Carrots should be tender but still have a slight bite; test for doneness with a fork. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, and can be refreshed by gently reheating in a skillet.
