Ingredients
- 500 grams radishes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup unsalted chicken broth
- 2 units garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Begin by thoroughly washing the radishes under cool running water to remove any dirt. Trim the ends and cut them in half to ensure even cooking.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.
Step 3
Add the halved radishes to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the oil and garlic mixture. Cook for 5 minutes, allowing the radishes to slightly soften and pick up some color.
Step 4
Pour in the unsalted chicken broth, then add the fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Step 5
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the radishes braise for 20-25 minutes, occasionally stirring to ensure even cooking. The radishes should be tender and easily pierced with a fork.
Step 6
Once cooked, remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high to allow the liquid to reduce. Add the butter, stirring to create a glossy sauce that coats the radishes.
Step 7
When the liquid has mostly evaporated and the radishes are coated in the sauce, remove the skillet from the heat.
Step 8
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, adding extra freshness and color to the dish.
Step 9
Serve the low-carb braised radishes hot as a side dish, accompanying your main course. Enjoy!
