How to Make Orange Supreme Vegetables
- Prepare your vegetables: Wash and chop 1 lb of your favorite vegetables (broccoli, carrots, green beans, etc.) into bite-sized pieces.
- Cook the vegetables: Steam or blanch the chopped vegetables until tender-crisp (about 5-7 minutes depending on the vegetable).
- Drain and keep warm: Drain the vegetables well and set aside to keep warm.
- Make the orange sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of butter over medium heat.
- Create a roux: Whisk in 4 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon of salt until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in orange juice: Slowly whisk in 1 cup of freshly squeezed orange juice, ensuring no lumps form.
- Thicken the sauce: Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly, until it thickens to your desired consistency (about 2-3 minutes).
- Combine and serve: Pour the warm orange sauce over the cooked vegetables, gently tossing to coat.
- Garnish and enjoy: Garnish with 2-3 orange slices and serve immediately as a delightful side dish to your holiday meal.
