1
Prepare the Carrots
Wash and peel the carrots. Cut them into uniform sticks, about 2-3 inches long.
2
Mince the Garlic
Peel and mince the garlic cloves finely.
3
Gather Thyme
Wash and chop the fresh thyme leaves.

4
Heat the Skillet
Place a cast-iron skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
5
Sauté the Carrots
Once the oil is hot, add the carrot sticks to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they start to soften.
6
Add Seasonings
Stir in the minced garlic, thyme, salt, black pepper, and honey. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
7
Check Doneness
The carrots should be tender but still have a slight crunch. If necessary, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

8
Garnish and Serve
Remove the skillet from heat. If desired, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Serve warm as a side dish.
