Creamed Pearl Onions

Start by cooking the bacon in a sauce pan; cook until crisp. Place on a paper-lined plate to drain any excess bacon grease. Reserve about 1/2 tablespoon of the bacon grease. Toss in the pearl onions and give a good stir. Cook for about 3 minutes, then add in the heavy whipping cream and mashed garlic.

Cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally until the cream reduces in half, about 10-15 minutes. Once reduced, add in the sherry wine, nutmeg, salt, and pepper, and give another good stir. Cook for another fives minutes, then stir in the bacon and serve.

These onions were out of this world. They had this great smoky flavor from bacon and just were perfectly creamy. I hope you enjoy!
