Parsnip and Red Peppers in Lemon Butter – Sybaritica

Parsnip and Red Peppers always work nicely together as a side dish. Incorporate a little lemon butter and you have a great side dish, especially for steak.

  • 1 – 2 Cups Parsnip cut into batons.
  • 1/2 Cup Red Pepper cut into strips
  • 1/2 Cup sliced Onion
  • 2 Tbsp. Butter
  • 2 Tbsp. Lemon Juice
  • 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh Parsley
  • Salt and Pepper to Taste
  • Brown the Parsnip Batons in a little oil over moderate heat until just tender and nicely browned, then remove to a bowl.
  • Add the red pepper strips to the pan and sauté just until beginning to soften.
  • Add the parsnips back to the pan with the onion and sauté a little longer until the onion is just translucent.
  • Add in the butter and the lemon juice, continue to cook for a minute or two until the lemon juice is mostly evaporated, season with salt and pepper, and stir in the parsley.
  • Serve garnished with a little more parsley if desired.
