Citrus-Glazed Turnips

Ingredients: 

• 1 tablespoon olive oil, or vegetable oil
• 1 pound turnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1/4 cup orange juice, fresh or bottled
• 1 tablespoon honey, or maple syrup, optional
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• Chopped fresh parsley, optional, for garnish

Method:

1.  Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add turnips and saute, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden-brown, about 8-10 minutes.
2. Add orange juice, honey (if using) and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until juice reduces and glazes turnips, about 5-8 minutes.
3. Transfer glazed turnips to a serving platter and garnish with black pepper and parsley.

Tip:

Substitute rutabaga, parsnips, or carrots for turnips.
