Mint-Topped Broiled Oranges: Breakfast-Brunch

Servings: 2

Prep time:10 Minutes

Ingredients:

• 

  1 Large Navel Orange

• 

  2 teaspoon Melted Butter

• 

  1/2 teaspoon Chopped Fresh Mint

• 

  1 tablespoon Orange Liqueur (optional)

Step 1:

Cut a large navel orange in half crosswise and cut a thin slice off the bottom of each half so it will sit steady on a foil covered baking sheet. Then run a knife around each half to loosen the orange from the peel. Do not remove the peel, however. Stir together 2 tsp melted butter and 1/2 tsp chopped fresh mint. If desired, you may add 1 tbsp of orange liqueur. Spoon the mixture evenly over the cut sides of the orange halves. Place the orange halves, cut side up, on the foil lined baking sheet.

Step 2:

Broil five inches from heat for five to eight minutes or until thoroughly heated.
