If your beets are large, cut them down to size so that they roast more evenly--and more quickly.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

20 baby beets, scrubbed
5 onions (a mix of red and white), cut into 3/4-inch wedges
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup 10-Minute Vinaigrette (balsamic vinegar variation), divided
2 teaspoons roughly chopped fresh oregano leaves, plus flowers for garnish (optional)
1 tablespoon roughly chopped fresh chervil leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Wrap beets in parchment-lined foil. Roast until tender, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, drizzle onions with oil, tossing to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Spread evenly in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast, turning once, until golden brown and tender, about 45 minutes.
  • Remove skins from beets; cut beets in half if large and leave whole if small. Toss beets with 1/2 cup vinaigrette and the herbs. Arrange onions on a platter. Drizzle with remaining vinaigrette. Top with beets; garnish with oregano flowers.
