Red Wine Glazed Cipollini Onions

Wonderful holiday side idea: red wine glazed cipollini onions šŸ˜ Cipollini onions are slightly sweeter than a pearl onion and bite-sized, so they don’t need to be cut. This recipe is super simple: I started out by cooking a few min in a skillet with butter and garlic, then added a little thyme, red.

Here’s how to make them:

  • 1/2 cup red wine

Instructions

  • Add wine and let cook down slightly (it’ll finish in the oven).Transfer to a glass dish and add a few sprigs of thyme so the onions. Cover with tin foil and cook on 350 for about 25 min, stirring onions every 10 min or so.Ā 
  • Remove foil and cook for another 10 min or until sauce has thickened and the onions have glazed nicely. Serve with some fresh thyme on top. Enjoy!
