The best cooked carrots you will ever eat!
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1 pound carrots, peeled, and sliced into 1/4 inch thick rounds
1/2 tsp table salt
2 Tbl granulated sugar
1/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
1/2 tsp grated orange zest
1/4 cup orange juice
1 Tbl unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces
ground black pepper
Bring cranberries, carrots, salt, 1 Tbl sugar, chicken broth, orange zest, and orange juice to boil, covered, in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium high heat; reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until carrots are almost tender, about 5 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to high, and simmer rapidly, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the butter and remaining 1 Tbl sugar to the skillet. Toss the carrots to coat and cook, stirring frequently, until the carrots are completely tender and the glaze is light gold, about 3 minutes. Transfer the carrots to a serving dish, scraping the glaze on top. Season to taste with pepper and serve immediately.
