Roasted Beets With Citrus, Feta And Walnuts Recipe
- 6 medium beets (about 1 1/2 pounds)
- 5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 2 oranges, cut into
- 2 grapefruits, cut into
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
- 3 scallions, finely sliced
- Preheat the oven to 425u0b0F. Wipe or scrub the beets clean, then trim the stems down to one-inch, leaving the "tails" on. Place the beets on a large piece of aluminum foil and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Wrap the foil around the beets to form a neat packet, then roast directly on a rack in the middle of the oven until tender when pierced with a knife, about 1 hour. Unwrap the beets and let sit until cool enough to handle. Peel the beets by rubbing the skin under cool running water, then cut into 1/8-inch thin slices.
- In a small bowl, whisk together remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and red wine vinegar. Toss beets, citrus, and dressing together in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving platter and Drizzle the juices from the bowl over top. Sprinkle feta, walnuts and scallions over top and serve.
