Number Of Ingredients 6

2 onions, chopped
1 1/3 cups pearl barley
1/2 cube butter
4 cups chicken broth
1/2 lb. mushrooms
1 cup slivered almonds

Steps:

  • Brown the onions in 1/3 of the butter. Place in a 13"x9" pyrex, coated with cooking spray. Brown barley in 1/3 of butter and add to baking dish. Pour 2 cups of chicken broth over the onions and barley. Bake uncovered at 325 for 30 minutes. Saute mushrooms in remaining butter. Stir barley and onion mixture. Add sauteed mushrooms, slivered almonds and remaining chicken broth and stir again. Bake uncovered for another 45 minutes or until barley is tender. You may find you need a little more butter - this is roughly 1/2 the original recipe. Also, the original calls for beef broth but I think even veggie would work. It travels and re-heats well. Just make sure you cool properly first.
