Baby Carrots with Dried Apricots

 

1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 onion, sliced thin

3 cups baby carrots, sliced into 1/4 inch slices

1 celery stalk, sliced

2 tablespoons honey

1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped

lemon zest from 1 lemon

2 cups broth

freshly ground pepper

salt

 

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook

until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the carrots, celery, honey, apricots, lemon

zest, and enough broth to just cover the carrots. Bring to a boil, reduce heat,

cover and simmer until the carrots are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Season

with salt and pepper. Serve warm. Serves 6.
