BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH PANCETTA AND PEARL ONIONS image

Categories     Leafy Green     Side

Yield 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/4lb. fresh red or white pearl onions (or thawed frozen pearl onions), root ends trimmed
4 oz. thick-sliced pancetta, cut into 2/4x2-inch matchsticks
2 1/2lb. Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise
2 oz. (4 tbsp.) unsalted butter, cut into 4 slices
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tsp. sherry vinegar, more to taste
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • If using fresh pearl onions, bring 3-quart pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the onions and cook for 1 minute to loosen their skins; drain in a colander and rinse under cold running water until cool to the touch. Pinch each onion at it stem end to make it slip out of its skin. If it doesn't, use a paring knife to remove the skin. (You can prepare the onions to this point up to 1 day ahead; refrigerate in an airtight container.) Cook the pancetta in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pancetta to a plate. Add the Brussels sprouts to the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until light browned on one side, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook, undisturbed, until lightly browned on the second side, about 2 minutes more. Add the butter, wine, and onions. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sprouts and onions are tender when pierced with a fork and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 15 minutes. Stir in the sherry vinegar and pancetta and season to taste with salt, pepper and additional vinegar. Transfer to a platter and serve.
