Honey Baked Lentils

Ingredients

• 1 pound dry lentils
• 1 small bay leaf
• 2 cups water
• 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup honey

Directions

Combine the lentils, bay leaf, 2 cups water, chicken broth, and salt together in a dutch oven or oven-proof saucepan; bring the mixture to a boil. Place a cover on the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, and allow the lentils to simmer for 30 minutes. Remove and discard the bay leaf.

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Stir the dry mustard, ginger, soy sauce, onion, and 1 cup water together in a bowl; stir the mixture into the lentils. Drizzle the honey over the mixture. Return the cover to the pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until the lentils are tender, about 1 hour.
