Instructions
- 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.
Notes
- Ensure the water doesn't evaporate while cooking, add more if needed.Steam is very hot, use caution when removing the lid after steaming.
- Garden fresh or baby carrots will cook faster while store bought carrots may need a few minutes extra.
