These easy sauteed carrots are cooked in butter and seasoned with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and fresh herbs. We love these carrots! These tasty carrots are so quick and easy to make that even the novice chef can master them. I love to serve them with smothered pork chops, chicken schnitzel, and oven-baked beef brisket.
