Carrots in Orange Dressing

This is a quick easy dressing that you can make in the microwave. You could use it over fresh cooked carrots or cooked frozen steamer bag carrots. It adds a nice flavor without overpowering the carrots.

Ingredients

  • 3 TBSP orange juice
  • 1/2 tsp orange zest
  • 1/2 tsp dry parsley
  • 1/4 tsp dry dill weed
  • 1 TBSP light brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 TBSP butter
  • 1 lb peeled, cut, and hot cooked carrot rounds

Instructions

  1. In a 2-cup heatproof measuring jug, whisk together the juice, zest, parsley, dill, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Add the butter and microwave on high until the butter is melted.
  2. Whisk, then cook on high power for 1 minute. The mixture will boil and bubble furiously.
  3. Whisk and pour over cooked carrots. Gently toss the carrots in the sauce and serve immediately.
