Melting Beets with Feta & Pistachios

• porciones: 6 servings
• tiempo total: 1 hour 5 minutes

Ingredientes

2½ pounds medium beets (6 to 8 beets), trimmed, peeled and sliced 1-inch thick

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground pepper

½ cup lower-sodium vegetable or chicken broth

1 teaspoon grated orange zest, plus more for garnish

3 tablespoons orange juice, divided

2 tablespoons honey, divided

¼ cup crumbled feta cheese

3 tablespoons salted roasted pistachios, chopped

Instrucciones

Preheat oven to 450°F.

Toss sliced beets, 2 tablespoons oil, ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Arrange the beets in a single layer in a 9-by-13-inch metal baking pan. (Do not use a glass dish, which could shatter.) Cover with foil. Roast until tender, about 40 minutes. Remove and discard foil.

Combine ½ cup broth, 1 teaspoon orange zest, 2 tablespoons orange juice and 1 tablespoon honey in a liquid measuring cup; carefully pour into the pan. Continue roasting, uncovered, until the liquid thickens slightly and the beets are very soft, 12 to 15 minutes.

Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon orange juice. Sprinkle with ¼ cup feta and 3 tablespoons pistachios. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon honey. Garnish with additional orange zest, if desired. Recipe developed by Jasmine Smith
