I was making an Orange juice chicken dish for a friend and her partner one night. For sides, I steamed some rice and thought that I'd cook some carrots - After mixing the orange juice and herbs for the chicken, I thought... Carrots and Orange juice would be great paired together and would go nice with the chicken. So this is the recipe I came up with. 4 ingredients, very simple, very tasty dish. Even my friends partner (who claimed to hate carrots) thought this dish was very tasty and went back for seconds.
