Buttery Carrot Sauté with Fresh Dill
I saw this Ina Garten buttery carrot sauté with fresh dill recipe online and decided to give it a try. The carrots took less than 10 minutes to make. I loved how buttery these tasty carrots were and the subtle flavor from the dill was a bonus. I love simple and delicious side dishes that take only minutes to make—they are perfect for weeknight meals.
Buttery Carrot Sauté with Fresh Dill
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup water
- 10 carrots, peeled and cut into small pieces
- Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1-2 tsp fresh dill, chopped, to taste
How to Make Buttery Carrot Sauté with Fresh Dill
Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the water and carrots to the pan and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Cover with a lid and cook for 6-7 minutes, or until fork-tender yet still a bit crisp.
Remove the lid and drain most of the water. Add the butter and sauté for another minute, until most of the water evaporates and the carrots are coated with the butter.
Remove from the heat, toss with the fresh chopped dill. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.

So simple, fresh, and beautiful! Just perfect!
I don’t follow many blogs/websites… truthfully I don’t really follow any… Except your! I don’t usually post either but today I felt like I needed to let you know that I love it here. 🙂 I’m making my menu for the week and so I stopped by for your amazing sloppy joe/manwhich recipe and I saw this carrot recipe when I logged in. My whole family has loved every recipe I’ve ever made from your site and I’m sure this will be no different so this WILL be added to Sunday’s baked chicken dinner. THANK YOU SO MUCH for what you do. <3
i LOVE carrots with dill! i might rank thyme slightly above it, but this kind of side dish is just the bomb diggety.
Fabulous Pam.
These carrots look very inviting and appetising, opposed to simply boiled carrots.
Thanks for sharing,

That’s a different way to season carrots! I usually do mine with butter and a tiny bit of honey, and everyone loves them. I”ll have to try this idea.
Your recipe is great for giving carrots flavor. I’ll have to try the dill.
A simple yet great side dish!
I love using fresh dill, so I will be sure to give this a try
I never think to make carrots as a side dish which is SO SILLY given that we always have them in the fridge! Great idea.
