Buttered Radishes and Leeks

Funny things happen to radishes when they are cooked. This recipe makes a great sidedish for 2 to 3 people.
 
INGREDIENTS
2   tablespoons butter
2-3 green onions cut diagonally to 1 inch
2   cups red radishes, sliced thinly
2   cups leeks, sliced thinly
½   cup low sodium chicken broth
1   teaspoon lemon juice
2   tablespoons chopped fresh flat leaf parsley

METHOD
Heat the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat and add the green onions. Cook the onions for about 3 minutes and add the radish slices. Stirring often, cook the radishes until they soften, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the radishes and onions and set aside.

Add the leeks, broth and lemon juice to the skillet and cook until the leeks are softened, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the onions and radishes to the skillet and warm for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and serve.
