We have really enjoyed watching Good Eats by Alton Brown. It is a food science show that show how to turn ordinary recipes into really well... good eats. His show on carrots showed a great way to make glazed carrots. As Brian is not a big veggie eater I am always looking for tasty way to prepare them.
The first step is to peel and cut the carrots in the even pieces so they can all cook at the same time. Then we sauteed them in butter, salt and ginger ale. The ginger ale is the base of the glaze and adds a sweet element with out being too sugary. The carrots cooked for about ten minutes and then we added chili powder and cooked in some more until the ginger ale turned to a glaze. They were so tender and sweet and we served them along side Shake and Bake chicken.
