Making holiday meals can be a lot of work. Do you spend most of your day in the kitchen slaving over the stove? Or maybe you’re responsible for a dish to bring and you’re not so much the cook? Either way this is a super simple side dish that’s quick and fresh. (And you can drink the port after dinner so it’s a win-win for everyone!)

RECIPE:
Serves 4

1 x 10 oz package red pearl onions – peeled, tips trimmed
1 x 10 oz package white pearl onions – peeled, tips trimmed
1/2 cup port
2 tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp salt

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Blanch the onions in a pot of boiling salted water for 3 minutes. Drain. Toss the onions in a bowl with the other ingredients and put on foiled oven tray.

Place in oven for 15 minutes, approx to cook and caramelize. They should be tender and sweet when done.
