Ingredients

1/2 Yellow Onion diced
2 Cloves Garlic minced
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
3 Ripe Pears peeled and diced
1/4 Cup Brown Sugar packed
1/2 Tsp Salt
1/2 Tsp Dried Ginger Powder
1/2 Tsp Smoked Paprika
1/4 Tsp Chili Powder
1/4 Tsp Dried Coriander
1/4 Tsp Cinnamon
Tiny Pinch of Cloves optional
1 Tsp Dijon Mustard or mustard seeds
2 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
1 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar

Instructions

Begin by prepping all of the vegetables as directed - dice the onion, mince the garlic, and peel and dice the pears.
Add the olive oil to a saucepot and bring to medium-low heat. Once the oil is hot, add in the onions and sauté until translucent, about 2-4 minutes.
Then, add in all of the rest of the ingredients, and stir well.
Bring the heat up to medium-high, stirring frequently, until the mixture starts bubbling. Cover the saucepot, and cook for 10 minutes covered, stirring every 1-2 minutes or so.
Then, remove the lid. Using a potato masher or heavy spoon, crush some of the pears until they're in smaller pieces.
Reduce the heat down to low, and continue to cook the chutney, uncovered, for another 5-10 minutes, or until the liquid level is very low. Be sure to stir frequently to prevent burning.
When done, remove from heat and let the chutney cool to room temperature.
Serve and enjoy!

Notes

This chutney will last in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days, and up to a month in the freezer.
