Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces carrots, julienned (about 4 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 pound zucchini, julienned (about 4 cups)
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon orange juice
Pinch sugar
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives

Steps:

Place a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and carrots to the pan and season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the carrots are crisp-tender, about 8 minutes.
Add the zucchini to the pan and cook until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the butter, orange juice and sugar and cook for 1 minute more. Toss to coat all of the vegetables in the glaze. Remove from the heat and stir in the chives. Serve immediately.
