This recipe is based on Chef John’s braised black lentils from allrecipes.

Ingredients

  • 1 heaping cup green lentils

  • 4 shallots, diced

  • 1 32oz. carton of reduced sodium chicken broth

  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley

  • 1/4 cup white wine vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil

Directions

  • Pour the lentils in a bowl and pour chicken broth until lentils completely covered. Let sit for an hour until lentils soak up the broth, add more broth if necessary.
  • Once the lentils are soft, heat up the olive oil in a skillet and cook the shallots until soft.
  • Add the lentils to the shallots and add the remainder of the chicken broth. Cook until broth evaporates, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the vinegar and parsley.
