Steamed Carrots

These Steamed Carrots are tender and simply seasoned with butter, salt, and pepper.

Ingredients :

  • 1 pound carrots (approx 5 medium-sized carrots)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • salt and black pepper to taste

Directions :

  • Cut carrots into sticks 2" long and ½" thick (or use baby carrots).
  • Place carrots in a steamer basket. Add water to the bottom of a saucepan so it is below the steamer basket, about 1 cup.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Allow carrots to steam 8-11 minutes or until tender-crisp.
  • Toss carrots with butter, salt, and pepper. Serve warm.
