GARLIC BUTTER ROASTED PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Set out a large rimmed baking sheet.
• Peel the parsnips and slice them into ½ inch rounds. Cut the largest pieces in half.
• Place the parsnips on the baking sheet. Drizzle the parsnips with olive oil. Toss to coat, then spread them out on the baking sheet. Generously sprinkle the parsnips with salt and pepper.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until fork-tender.
• Meanwhile, mince the garlic and chop the parsley. Mix them into the melted butter.
• Once the parsnips are soft, pour the garlic butter over the top. Toss the parsnips and bake another 3-5 minutes. Serve immediately.

• Combine 1/2 cup water, the parsnips, cranberries, maple syrup, 1 tablespoon olive oil, the coriander, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover and cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Uncover and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon water and the lemon juice. Cook, stirring, until glazed, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the parsley; season with salt.
