Glazed Carrots & Parsnips

1 cup canned chicken broth
3 Tablespoons butter
1 1/2 Tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pound carrots, cut into sticks (about 2 cups)
1 pound parsnips, peeled and cut into sticks (about 2 cups)
2 Tablespoons minced fresh parsley

In a large saucepan, combine the broth, butter, brown sugar, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil. Add the carrots and cover. Cook over moderately high heat for 1 minute. Add parsnips and cook, covered, for 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. With a slotted spoon, transfer the vegetables to a bowl and cover, keeping them warm. Boil the cooking liquid until it is reduced to about 1/3 cup and pour it over the vegetables. Add parsley, and salt and pepper to taste and toss the mixture gently. Serves 4.
