Glazed carrot and wax beans

This is one of my favorite sides for baked salmon. The other best side dishes for baked salmon are glazed fire roasted corn, roasted sweet potato with or without carrots, steamed broccoli 

Glazed carrots and wax beans

Ingredients 
1. 2 large carrots cut into 1 inch long pieces and quartered( to make them equal in thickness to green beans)
3. 1/2 lb green or waxed beans or a can drained. Cut the fresh beans into 1 inch pieces
4. 1/2 cup chicken broth
5. 1 teaspoon sugar
6. 1 tablespoon butter

Boil water in a pan with 1/2 teaspoon salt and add the carrots to it. Let boil for 2 minutes. If using fresh beans add them to the boiling water and let boil for 3 minutes. Drain and set aside

In a wide pan bring the chicken broth, salt and butter to a boil. Add carrots and beans and let boil till there is about 2 tablespoons liquid. Serve as an yummy side
