Roasted Beets with Orange Gremolata and Goat Cheese image

My grandma always grew beets then pickled or canned them, but I prefer to prepare them differently. I like these roasted beets in the winter but they can be enjoyed all year with the addition of fresh herbs and tangy goat cheese. -Courtney Archibeque, Portland, Oregon

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 medium fresh golden beets (about 1 pound)
3 medium fresh beets (about 1 pound)
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons orange juice
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

  • Preheat oven to 400°. Scrub beets and trim tops by 1 in. Place beets on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 24x12 in.). Fold foil around beets, sealing tightly. Place on a baking sheet. Roast until tender, 55-65 minutes. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape., When cool enough to handle, peel, halve and slice beets; place in a serving bowl.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less orange zest next time.

The recipe was easy to follow and the roasted beets turned out great. The orange gremolata was a nice addition, but I think I'll try a different herb next time.

The orange gremolata was a bit too overpowering for me. Otherwise, the roasted beets were delicious.

The roasted beets were a bit too hard for my taste, but the orange gremolata was amazing. Will try again with a different cooking method.

This roasted beet recipe with orange gremolata and goat cheese was an absolute delight! The combination of flavors was絶妙, with the sweetness of the beets perfectly balanced by the tanginess of the orange and the creaminess of the goat cheese. Will de
