Sicilian Caramelle Cipolle
Ingredients
- 12 small Onions (#340090)
- 3 Tbsp. Olive Oil (#280398)
- 2 Bay Leaves, broken by hand (#1000251)
- ½ Tbsp. Lemon Zest (#1003943)
- 1 Tbsp. Brown Sugar (#1000488)
- 1 Tbsp. Honey (#110680)
- 1 Tbsp. Red Wine Vinegar (#280000)
Directions
- Soak the onions in boiling water and place in an ice bath before you peel, this will make them easier to peel. Use a sharp knife to peel and cut them in half. Heat the oil in a large skillet, and add bay leaves and onions. Cook for 6 minutes on medium heat until well-browned all over.
- Add the lemon zest to the skillet with the sugar and honey. Cook for 3 minutes. Stir occasionally until the onions are lightly caramelized. Add the red wine vinegar to the skillet carefully, so it does not splash. Cook for 7 minutes, stirring, or until the onions are tender and the liquid has dissipated. Transfer the onions to a serving dish and serve at once.
