Caramelized Pearl Onions

Caramelized Pearl Onions

Course Vegetables
Servings 4 (serving size: 1/4 cup)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 1 pkg pearl onions (10 oz)
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tbs thyme fresh, chopped
  • 2 tbs dry white wine
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • To peel pearl onions easily, slice off the root ends and drop into boiling water for less than a minute. Drain and rinse with cold water. Pinch the stem end of each, and a peeled onion will pop out. When they're in the skillet, shake the onions frequently for even browning.
  • Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Melt butter in pan. Add onions, and cook 5 minutes or until lightly browned, shaking pan frequently. Add water and sugar, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 8 minutes. Uncover and cook 2 minutes or until liquid evaporates. Stir in thyme and remaining ingredients; cook 1 minute.
