Ingredients
- 450 grams Cremini mushrooms
- 300 grams Pearl onions
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 whole Garlic cloves
- 3 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F).
Step 2
Clean the cremini mushrooms using a damp paper towel and trim the stems if necessary. Keep them whole unless they are very large, in which case you can halve them.
Step 3
Blanch the pearl onions in boiling water for 1-2 minutes, then transfer them to an ice bath. Peel the onions by cutting off the root end and slipping off the skins.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mushrooms and pearl onions. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
Step 5
Peel the garlic cloves and crush them slightly with the flat side of a knife, leaving them whole. Add the garlic cloves and thyme sprigs to the bowl with the vegetables.
Step 6
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, tossing again to distribute the seasoning.
Step 7
Spread the mushroom and onion mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 8
Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the mushrooms are golden brown and the pearl onions are caramelized.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and toss the vegetables with balsamic vinegar while still warm.
Step 10
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Serve warm as a side dish with roasted meats, grains, or salads.
