Orange Glazed Grilled Carrots

These grilled carrots, glazed with a tangy orange sauce, are a delicious side dish that brings vibrant flavor to your meal.

Ingredients

• 1 pound carrots, peeled and quartered
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon orange zest
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat the grill to medium heat.
2. In a large bowl, toss the quartered carrots with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
3. Grill the carrots on the preheated grill for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender and have grill marks.
4. While the carrots are grilling, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the orange juice, honey, and orange zest. Bring to a simmer and let it reduce for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
5. Once the carrots are done, remove them from the grill and drizzle the orange glaze over the top. Toss the carrots gently to coat them evenly in the glaze.
6. Serve immediately, garnished with additional orange zest if desired.
