Whiskey Glazed Carrots - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 1/2 lbs carrots, peeled and cut into thick circles
1/2 cup butter, divided into tablespoons
1/2 cup whiskey
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup green onion, sliced
ground pepper

Preparation

Melt 1 tablespoon butter in large pan over high heat.
Add carrots in a few batches, cooking each batch for about a minute and a half. Don't overwhelm the pan. Remove from pan.
Pour whiskey and allow to evaporate for 30 seconds. Reduce heat to medium and add remaining butter.
When butter melts, add brown sugar and stir together.
Add carrots to pan, cover and cook for 5 minutes.
Remove lid, add salt and pepper.
Continue cooking until glaze is thick and carrots are at desired tenderness (about 5 minutes).
Place carrots on a serving platter and drizzle remaining glaze over the top.
Serve hot with green onion slices on top.
