Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Shallots
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 sprig Fresh thyme (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the shallots and trim the ends, keeping them whole to retain their shape.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter with the olive oil.
Add the shallots to the skillet and stir gently to coat them in the butter and oil mixture.
Cook the shallots for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they begin to soften and develop a golden-brown color.
Drizzle in the honey and balsamic vinegar, stirring to combine.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Allow the shallots to cook for an additional 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and fully glazed in the honey mixture.
Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh thyme if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish or accompaniment to your main course.
