Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium high heat.
- Add the water, diced onion and carrots, minced garlic, honey, salt, ground black pepper, and thyme and bring to a boil.
- Cover, reduce the heat to medium and cook until the carrots are just tender, about 8 minutes.
- Add the peas, cover, and simmer until the carrots and peas are tender, about 5 minutes longer. Serve warm.
Notes
- Cut the carrots into similar sizes so that they cook through evenly.
- Cover the skillet when cooking the carrots. The trapped steam will help them to cook through.
- If making ahead, let the carrots and peas cool completely before storing in the fridge.
