Next, melt butter in a bowl and combine it with apricot preserves. Add a pinch of nutmeg, salt, orange zest, and lemon juice to the mixture, stirring until well incorporated. Add the cooked carrots to the bowl and gently toss them in the sauce to coat evenly. Finally, sprinkle chopped parsley over the top of the carrots for added flavor and texture
