Instructions
Steam the Carrots
Place the sliced carrots in a microwave-safe bowl with the water and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 4 to 5 minutes until the carrots are fork-tender.
Drain and Glaze
Carefully drain any remaining water from the bowl. Add the honey, butter, and salt to the hot carrots and stir well so the butter melts and coats every piece.
Final Microwave and Serve
Return the bowl to the microwave uncovered for 30 seconds to help the glaze set and caramelize slightly. Stir once more and serve hot.
