As a diabetic, I find that Barley really keeps my blood sugar level. I came up with this recipe to use as a side dish to replace rice. This side dish works really well with beef.
Ingredients:
2 large yellow onions
3 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups medium pearl barley
2 cans chicken broth
1 (11 1/2 ounce) can tomato juice
cooking spray
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Cut the onion into a medium dice.
3. Saute in a non-stick skillet with the butter until you start getting those browned edges.
4. Pour the barley into the skillet and coat with the onion and butter mixture.
5. Spray a medium size casserole with cooking spray.
6. Transfer the barley to the casserole.
7. Pour the chicken broth and tomato juice into the casserole.
8. Do not place a lid on the casserole.
9. Bake for 60 to 75 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
10. Fluff before serving.
