Roasted Radishes with Honey, Thyme and Lemon

Roasting mellows the radishes bite without depleting it of character. These gorgeous gems are oddly addictive—and add an unexpected element to any meal.

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  2. Combine the radishes and oil in a large bowl and toss well. Season the radishes with salt and transfer to a large rimmed baking sheet. Place in the oven and roast, tossing once after 15 minutes, until tender and lightly browned, about 23-25 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the thyme and cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter smells nutty and has browned slightly about 3 minutes. Stir in the lemon zest and honey and cook 30 seconds. Add the radishes and cook, tossing, 30 seconds until coated. Serve warm or at room temperature.
