This easy side dish plays up the natural sweetness of the carrots with a touch of honey and adds a pop of heat with cayenne pepper. We like the richness that butter brings to this dish, but you can substitute olive oil if you prefer. Serve these carrots alongside any of your favorite entrees for a fun twist on a classic side dish.
