Shallots

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shallots

    Peel the shallots and slice them thinly. Aim for uniform thickness for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Heat the Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Shallots

    Add the sliced shallots to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and translucent.

  4. 4

    Season the Shallots

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the shallots. Continue to sauté for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  5. 5

    Add Balsamic Vinegar

    Drizzle in the balsamic vinegar and stir well to combine. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to let the vinegar reduce slightly.

  6. 6

    Finish with Thyme

    Add the fresh thyme, stirring to incorporate. Remove from heat and serve warm.
