4 sprigs thyme

1/4 cup olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 freshly ground black pepper

1 cup dry white wine

2 tablespoons Sherry vinegar

2 cups sour cream

1/4 cup minced fresh chives

Preparation

Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Mix onions, shallots, thyme sprigs, and oil in a large roasting pan. Season with salt and pepper.
