Spiced Carrots with Watermelon and Pecans

2 cups large pecan pieces or halves
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3 cups baby carrots
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3 cups small seeded watermelon pieces

In a large heavy non-stick saute pan over medium high heat. Place the
pecans
in an even layer and sprinkle the sugar over them. Stir the pecans while
drizzling the soy sauce over them. Heat while stirring constantly until
the
sugar melts and the nuts glaze. This process takes 5 to 8 minutes. Remove
the nuts to waxed paper to cool. Break apart as needed. Meanwhile, simmer
the carrots in a saucepan with the brown sugar, orange juice and cinnamon
until tender and glazed. Form a ring around the rim of a warm serving
platter with the watermelon and pour the carrots in the middle. Top with
glazed pecans. Serve immediately. Serves 6.
