Melt butter or heat oil in a Wok or large oven-safe sauté pan set over medium-high heat. Add honey, broth mix, and cayenne, if using. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer to let flavours blend, 2 min. Add carrots; turn off heat. Stir to evenly coat.
Move wok to oven and roast, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 18 min. Carefully remove and place back on stovetop over medium-high heat. Stir often until carrots are uniformly glazed, 2–4 min. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Add toppings, if desired.
