Glazed Hoisin Sesame Carrots Recipes

HOISIN-SESAME CARROTS

Steps:

• Toast the sesame seeds in a large dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a small dish and set aside.
• To the same skillet, add the carrots, hoisin, butter, a pinch of salt, a few grinds of pepper and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Lower the heat to medium, cover and cook until the carrots are tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes.
• Uncover the skillet and raise the heat to medium-high. Simmer until the liquid has reduced to a glaze, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper. Serve sprinkled with the toasted sesame seeds and chives.

HOISIN-GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Combine five-spice powder, paprika, salt, garlic, pepper, and mustard in a bowl. Rub over both sides of chicken.
• Combine hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and five-spice powder in a bowl to create the glaze.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill chicken, covered, turning once, until lightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Continue cooking, covered and turning and brushing with the glaze every 5 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink in the middle, an additional 15 to 20 minutes.

SESAME CARROT SLICES

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook and stir the carrots in butter over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, mustard, salt, hot pepper sauce and pepper. Cook and stir 4 minutes longer or until carrots are crisp-tender and evenly coated. Sprinkle with parsley and sesame seeds.

STICKY SESAME-GLAZED CARROTS

GLAZED CARROTS ASIAN STYLE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to boil, add the carrots and parboil for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
• In a large glass dish, combine the remaining ingredients. Add the carrots and marinate for 30 minutes.
• Prepare an outdoor grill with an oiled rack set 4 inches from the heat source. Using a oiled wire hinged vegetable basket or just directly on the rack ( whichever you find easier), grill the carrots, turning constantly for a total of 10 minutes, until slightly charred.

HONEY GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Peel the carrots and cut into serving size pieces.
• Steam or boil until just tender.

• Serve immediately.

HONEY-GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Fill an ovenproof skillet that can fit the carrots with 1 to 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add the carrots and add more water if needed to cover the carrots. Reduce the heat to simmer the carrots until they're tender but not soft, about 15 minutes.
• Pour the water out of the skillet, keeping the carrots in the skillet by holding them back with a spatula. Add the juice, honey and butter to the skillet and stir to mix (the butter may not melt all the way). Roll the carrots in the mixture, season them with salt and transfer to the oven.
• Bake, gently rolling the carrots once, until the carrots are glazed, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt and sprinkle with parsley.
