For a deeper flavor, try using freshly grated orange zest in addition to the juice. A touch of nutmeg or ginger can also be added to the glaze for a warm, comforting twist. To prevent the carrots from becoming too soft, avoid overcooking them during the initial simmering stage. These glazed carrots are delicious served with roasted chicken, pork, or as part of a vegetarian meal.
