Ingredients

  • 1 large red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 C dry red wine
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 2 T light-colored honey (dark honey, like a wildflower, will overpower the other flavors)
  • 3/4 C dried figs, small-medium dice
  • 2 T red wine vinegar
  • 1 T fresh thyme
  • 2 tsp avocado oil

‍

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan on medium heat, add the avocado oil. Once the pan is hot, add the onions and sea salt. Cook for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep the onions from burning.
  2. Add the diced figs, thyme, and red wine. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the red wine is almost completely absorbed.
  3. Add the honey and vinegar and mix thoroughly. Continue cooking for about 10-15 minutes. A jam-like consistency should remain when it is done.
  4. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
