Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
½ tsp black pepper

For serving

½ cup sour cream, for serving
2 tbsp fresh dill, roughly chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
2
Add the beets and chicken broth to the saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a steady simmer. Cook, partially covered, until the beets are completely tender and yield easily when pierced with a fork, 30 to 35 minutes.
