Peel the carrots and slice them into half-inch rounds. Finely chop fresh parsley and set aside.

COOKING

In a thick-bottomed, oven-safe skillet, add enough water to cover the bottom by approximately 1/2 inch.

FINISH WITH

Place the skillet on medium heat and add the sliced carrots. Boil them for about 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, drain the water completely from the skillet. Add the butter, light brown sugar, salt, and pepper to the carrots.

Mix everything together in the skillet until the carrots are completely coated. Continue stirring for a couple of minutes to let the butter and sugar create a glaze.

Now place the skillet on low heat and keep cooking the carrots while stirring occasionally for about 15-20 minutes, or until the carrots turn tender and golden brown.

Taste a carrot slice, adjust salt and pepper if necessary. When ready, sprinkle the chopped parsley over the carrots before serving.

Serve the caramelized carrots warm in the skillet for a rustic presentation
