Note: I don't have access to fresh crab. I used canned crab, which increased the sodium content. But the dish was still really tasty and a nice change of pace. Also, traditionally is only uses crab, but I had shrimp on hand so I used that in addition to the crab. It worked.
Carrots in Beer and Dill
Serves 4
1 pound bag of baby carrots
1 cup of beer
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon dried dill
- Cut the carrots in half the long way.
- Place carrots in a non-stick saute pan over medium heat.
- Add beer. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat.
- Stir occasionally.
- If the beer evaporates, add a little more. (It probably won't need more.)
- Just before serving, add a teaspoon butter and dill. Toss to coat and serve.
