Peel carrots, then slice on the diagonal into ½-inch rounds.
Add carrots to a medium saucepan; add 1 tablespoon salt and fill pot with water.
Bring carrots to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 5 to 10 minutes. Do not overcook.
Drain carrots, then return to saucepan and place over medium-low heat.
Add butter, brown sugar, and Dijon to carrots. Then cook, stirring constantly, until ingredients combine to create a sauce that coats the carrots. (It should only take a few minutes.)
Season to taste with additional salt, if desired, then serve sprinkled with parsley. Enjoy!
