Recipe: Balsamic-Glazed Pearl Onions

• portions: 4 servings

Ingrédients

2 (10-ounce) bags pearl onions, red and/or white

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1/2 cup chicken stock

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Step 1

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add onions and cook for 3 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water. Cut off the root end and gently squeeze from the tip to remove the outer peel. (I place the cut end against my knife while squeezing to prevent the onion layers from separating.)

Step 2

In a large skillet or braising pan, melt the butter over medium heat until foamy. Add the onions and sauté for one minute. Add the chicken stock and balsamic vinegar to the onions and cover. Increase heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil; cook for 10 minutes. Remove the cover and continue to cook until the sauce is very thick and glossy, approximately 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper to taste. (You can garnish with freshly chopped herbs, if desired.)
