Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams pearl onions
- 6 large garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch the pearl onions for 1-2 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool.
Once cooled, trim the ends of the pearl onions and peel off the papery skins.
Place the peeled pearl onions in a large mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, chopped garlic cloves, fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
Transfer the onion mixture to a baking dish or a rimmed baking sheet. Spread them out in an even layer.
Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the onions are golden and tender, and the garlic is caramelized.
Remove the baking dish from the oven and drizzle the roasted onions with balsamic vinegar. Toss to combine and let rest for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
