Comments: The rich caramel flavor of brown sugar goes well with the bacon and pecans.
Ingredients:
Directions:
Cook the bacon in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until crisp. Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Remove all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings from the pan. Add the pecans and cook until fragrant and slightly browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer the pecans to the plate with the bacon.

Add the carrots, salt, 1 tablespoon of the brown sugar, the chicken broth, and thyme to the skillet. Bring to a boil, covered, over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are almost tender when poked with the tip of a paring knife, about 5 minutes. Uncover, increase the heat to high, and simmer rapidly, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, 1 to 2 minutes.

Add the butter and remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar to the skillet. Toss the carrots to coat and cook, stirring frequently, until the carrots are completely tender, about 3 minutes. Off heat, add the lemon juice and toss to coat. Transfer the carrots to a serving dish, scraping the glaze from the pan into the dish. Season to taste with pepper and serve immediately.
