Sriracha-Glazed Turnips

Sriracha-Glazed Turnips

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small x red onion, sliced
  • 4 slices thick-cut bacon
  • 12 ounces turnips (preferably small Japanese turnips), peeled if you like and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha
  • 2 tablespoons agave syrup (preferably raw or organic)
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 2 tablespoons roughly chopped parsley, plus leaves for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

Melt the butter in a very large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring regularly, until richly caramelized, about 10 minutes.

In a large (10-inch) skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon, turning every once in a while, until browned and crispy, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels, then chop into small pieces.

Place turnips in a microwave-safe bowl, add 1 tablespoon of water and cover with plastic. Poke holes in plastic and microwave for 4 to 5 minutes at 100% until turnips are nearly tender.

Drain the turnips and add to the skillet the Sriracha and agave syrup. Cook until sauce is reduced and turnips are coated, about 2 minutes. Stir in blue cheese and parsley.

Scoop onto a serving plate and top with more parsley leaves.
