I loved this. Made a few changes - used half the butter called for, subbed a little apple cider and balsamic vinegar mix for the sherry (I don't generally cook with alcohol or have it on hand). The carrots were wonderful! I made only a half pound, I wish I would have made more!! Yum thank you for an easy way to fix carrots. I make them ALL the time, this will be a great change..

BEST CARROT RECIPE EVER! My friend who doesn't like cooked carrots even liked them! I used wine, instead of sherry, and didn't measure (whoops!). The combo of the thyme and rosemary were wonderful on the carrots. Don't make the mistake I made - and try to cook the carrots in the pan without first microwaving or steaming etc unless you like your carrots very very firm. Thanks!

I wanted a super quick dinner so I cheated a bit with these. I used tinned sliced carrots & did the sauce in the microwave. Because it was microwaved the sauce didn't really glaze but it tasted yummy nevertheless. I used dried thyme & fresh rosemary, a keeper, thanks!

Steamed my carrots in the microwave. Used red wine (as I didn't have any sherry). Delicious side dish! Thanks Parsley! :)

Very easy side dish, I used baby carrots steamed in the microwave, then added all ingredients to my skillet over med-low as indicated in the recipe. Great for company!
