Broiled Tuna & Zucchini with Apricot-Cinnamon Glazed Carrots

I started some water boiling in a skillet for the carrots, and sliced and salted the zucchini.  Once the water was boiling, a threw in the baby carrots and put on the lid.  I put a little oil in two cast iron skillets, put the tuna steak in one and the zucchini in the other.  I broiled them while the carrots were pan steaming.  When the carrots were done, I put them in a glass bowl, added a spoonful of apricot fruit spread and some Ceylon Cinnamon.  I put the lid on the bowl and shook it to coat the carrots.  I put some lemon juice on the tuna and plated it with the zucchini.  I transferred the carrots to a regular bowl and served it all with a Mendocino Castle Rock “Pinot Noir”.  Pinot Noir is in quotes because I have doubts about whether it is actually Pinot Noir.  I’m quite the Pinot fan, and this doesn’t taste like any other Pinot I’ve ever had (it reminds me of a Merlot).
