These were yummy. I will make again, but will either omit or lessen the orange zest. It turned out very citrusy. A little citrusy would have been good.

This dish was pretty good and certainly an improvement over the usual boring take on brown sugar glazed carrots. That being said, I'm not granting this a full 5 stars as I had a few texture issues in that the preserves and the rest of the glaze mixture separated despite being cooked for a while. To anyone looking for especially sweet glazed carrots, this isn't the dish for you, or you might want to add sugar or honey. It is mildly sweet and tangy.

Very good. Next time I may thicken the sauce a bit first (just simmer it on its own).

The adults liked this, the kids did not but that's not a big suprise since my kids are not big on carrots. Would make again.

I did not care for this dish. As is, it was very soupy. It could have been the preserves that I used, but aside from the texture, the flavor was too "citrusy" for my taste. Then again, I am not a huge fan of heavy-citrus in savory cooking. Don't get me wrong, I love notes of citrus in many different styles of cooking, but this was over the top. I think next time I may create a sauce that has a slightly viscous texture to then sautee the precooked carrots in, reduce the amount of citrus and find other spices that would better accent this dish to create something more savory.

I would cut down on the butter. It was a little overpowering.

I have made this Twice now and both times it turned out fantastic. The second time I used mandarin juice instead of lemon and it was still awesome. My younger sister came over for a meal and although she hates carrots she still asked for seconds.
