The carrots can be served in hollowed out orange shells for a nice presentation. The recipe also says they may be prepared ahead and reheated although I have never done that. Prep time does not include the time to clean and cut the carrots.
Ingredients:
2 lbs carrots, cleaned and cut into 1/2 inch thick slices
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter, plus
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup sugar
1 (12 ounce) jar orange marmalade
3/4 cup grand marnier, divided
Directions:
1. Combine carrots, water to cover, and salt in pan. Cover and cook over medium heat 25 minutes. Drain and set aside.
2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sugar and marmalade and simmer about 10 minutes or until sugar is melted. Stir in carrots and 1/2 cup Grand Marnier. Simmer, uncovered about 30 minutes or until carrots are shiny and candied. Add remaining Grand Marnier.
3. Sprinkle with nutmeg and serve in orange shells, if desired.
