Parsnips with Sage Butter

By Bob_Bazzle

Caramelized by high-heat roasting, all that these parsnips needed was a hint of sage to make fans of us all.

Ingredients

• 2 lb parsnips
• 15 to 20 fresh sage leaves
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter

Preparation

Step 1

Put oven rack in lower third of oven and preheat oven to 375°F.

Peel and thinly slice parsnips.
1. Toss together parsnips, oil and salt in a shallow roasting pan. Roast until tender and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter.
2. In a small sauce pan over medium heat, cook butter and sage until butter just begins to brown and sage is crisped, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour over parsnips and serve.
