Roasted Beets And Oranges With Herb Butter Recipe

Ingredients

4

medium beets (about 1 lb), peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces

1

small orange, halved, thinly sliced

2

tablespoons olive oil

1/4

teaspoon salt

1/4

teaspoon freshly ground pepper

3

tablespoons butter

1

tablespoon chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley

1

tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves

2

tablespoons orange juice

Preparation

Heat oven to 400°F. Cut 18x12-inch sheet of heavy-duty foil; spray foil with cooking spray. In large bowl, toss beets, orange slices, oil, salt and pepper. Spoon mixture in center of foil. Bring up 2 sides of foil over mixture so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Place packet on cookie sheet.

Roast 45 minutes. Carefully unfold foil with tongs; roast 10 minutes longer or until beets are tender and browned.

In 12-inch skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Stir in parsley, rosemary and orange juice with whisk; cook 1 to 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove beets and oranges from foil and add to skillet; cook and stir until coated with butter mixture.
