Best 6 Roasted Parsnips With Orange Zest Recipes

ORANGE-BRAISED CARROTS & PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Trim and scrub or peel the carrots and parsnips. If the parsnips are thick, slice them in half or quarters lengthwise so they are about the same width as the carrots.
• Place the carrots and parsnips in a pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, that's large enough for the vegetables to lie flat. Add the shallots, orange zest, 3/4 cup of the orange juice, the olive oil, thyme, red pepper flakes, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
• Place the pot on the stove and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover tightly with a lid or heavy-duty foil. Transfer to the oven and cook for 1 1/2 hours, until the carrots and parsnips are very tender. Discard the thyme bundle. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of orange juice and the parsley and season to taste. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

ROASTED CARROTS AND PARSNIPS WITH CITRUS BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• In a small bowl, combine butter, orange zest, orange juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; stir well to combine. Set the citrus butter aside.
• Peel the carrots and parsnips and cut them lengthwise into long wedges, which that will get a bit browned and crisp at the ends. If I am roasting young carrots small enough to cook whole or halved lengthwise, I like to leave a half inch or so of the greens attached-looks pretty. Parsnips will cook at about the same rate as carrots, so cut them into similar-size pieces.
• On a rimmed baking sheet, toss vegetables with oil; season with 1 teaspoon salt and toss again. Spread the vegetables flat and roast until tender and lightly browned (and more than lightly browned on the thinner edges), tossing halfway through, 20 to 30 minutes. If they seem to be getting too browned before tender, sprinkle them with a little water and keep roasting.
• When vegetables are roasted, place in a warmed dish and spoon the citrus butter on, tossing them gently to melt the butter and coat the roots. Serve warm.

ROASTED PARSNIPS WITH ORANGE ZEST

Steps:

• Heat oven to 500 degrees.
• Place parsnips in a large bowl; drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Toss to coat.
• Turn parsnips into large roasting pan and roast, shaking pan occasionally, until golden, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven, add juice and zest, and toss to coat.
• Return to oven and roast until parsnips have caramelized, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer to warm serving bowl and serve.

ORANGE-HONEY GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Cut the carrots diagonally in 1-inch-thick slices. You should have about 5 cups of carrots. Place 1/2 cup water, the butter, honey, 2 teaspoons of salt, and the ginger in a large saute pan and bring to a boil. Add the carrots, cover the pan, and simmer over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Remove the lid and continue to cook for about 20 minutes, or until all the water has evaporated. You may want to raise the heat for the last 5 minutes.
• Add the orange zest and orange juice to the pan, tossing with the carrots. Simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes, until the carrots are al dente (tender but still resistant when you bite) and the sauce glazes the carrots. Add the pepper and another teaspoon of salt, to taste.

ROAST PARSNIPS WITH SOY, HONEY AND ORANGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C / 400°F.
• Pour oil into a roasting pan and put in oven to heat.
• Add parsnips to hot oil, season if desired and roast for 20 minutes.
• Mix honey, soy, juice and zest. Add to parsnips and toss to coat. Return to oven for another 10 minutes until caramelised.
• Serve with and remaining juices poured over.

ROASTED PARSNIPS AND APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, combine parsnips and apples. Dot with butter. Roast until parsnips and apples are tender and golden, about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through. Toss with orange zest, orange juice, and cinnamon; season with salt.
