Wash the radishes thoroughly and trim off the tops and tips. Cut them in half, or into quarters if they are larger, to ensure even cooking.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the radishes in a single layer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the radishes begin to soften and develop golden edges.
Add the minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to the pan. Continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes, stirring often, until the radishes are tender and lightly caramelized.
Remove from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the cooked radishes. Toss to coat evenly.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, and enjoy warm as a side dish or a healthy snack!
