Yield Makes 8 servings (abot 4 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 lb fresh red pearl onions
3/4 cup apple juice
3/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 (4-inch) sprigs fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Garnish: fresh thyme leaves for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Blanch pearl onions in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling water 1 minute, then drain in a colander. When onions are cool enough to handle, peel.
  • Cook onions with remaining ingredients, covered, in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately low heat, shaking pan occasionally, until onions are tender and glazed and most of liquid is evaporated, about 45 minutes. Discard thyme.
