For this Glazed Green Beans and Carrots I personally always use chicken broth to make it but if you are a vegan or vegetarian or only have vegetable broth in the house you can easily substitute it! The taste will still impress you!

I have also, on a few occasions over the years, made this recipe with only carrots or just beans even though I prefer to serve this colorful dish with both. However, if you are only using beans make sure to reduce the cooking time at the start by 2 minutes so you don’t overcook them!

Of course we have a video for these Glazed Green Beans and Carrots below for you to check out! Once you see how easy this dish is to make you might just want to give it a try! I am pretty sure you will be glad you did!

Glazed Green Beans and Carrots

Ingredients

2 cups green beans, fresh, cut approximately
2 cups carrots, peeled and sliced or a bag of baby carrots - approximately
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
3 tblsp butter, melted
3 tablespoons honey or brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt, more or less to taste
1/4 teaspoon pepper, more or less to taste

Instructions

In a large skillet or pot, bring enough salted water to cover your carrots and beans to a boil. I usually add about 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.
Add carrots and cook for 2 minutes.
Add beans and cook for another 2 minutes.
Drain in a colander in your sink and pat dry with a paper towel as best you can.
In a large skillet add broth and butter.
Bring to a boil and then decrease your temperature to simmer, medium to medium low. Add beans and carrots and continue simmering for 3 minutes uncovered to reduce the liquid. Stir regularly.
Add honey or brown sugar, salt and pepper and stir for a minute or so to coat. Serve immediately and enjoy!
