A nice, fresh way to prepare carrots. Weight Watcher 2 points Crockpot version: I have made this ahead of time and put them in the crockpot just to heat up. If you plan on doing it this way, have the carrots a bit under cooked. They take roughly 3/4 - 1 hour to heat up (depending on crockpot) Ingredients:
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 lb baby carrots, peeled |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced |
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped |
1/2 teaspoon lime rind, grated |
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Prepare garlic; let stand 10 minutes.
2. Steam carrots, covered, 10 minutes or until tender.
3. Heat butter in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger to pan; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in carrots, cilantro, and remaining ingredients.
