RASPBERRY GLAZED BEETS
RASPBERRY GLAZED BEETS
Ingredients
- 3 lb beets, trimmed
- 1/2 cup canned chicken broth
- 1/4 cup raspberry or red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 2 tbsp salted butter
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp grated orange peel
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp freshly ground pepper
Directions
- Place beets in a large saucepan; cover with salted water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 40 - 45 minutes; drain. When cool enough to handle, peel beets and cut into wedges. There should be about 3 cups. Beets may be prepared and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
- Combine broth, vinegar, orange juice, butter, lemon juice, sugar, orange peel, salt and pepper in a non-reactive saucepan. Bring to a boil; boil until mixture is thickened and reduced by half. Stir in beets; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until beets are heated through and glazed.
