Braised Red Cabbage With Chestnuts

Ingredients

2 teaspoons  canola oil 2   onions, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced 1 head  red cabbage (about 3 pounds), halved, cored and thinly sliced 2/3 cup  reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth 2 teaspoons  sugar 1 teaspoon  caraway seeds 1 cup  cooked peeled chestnuts, halved (see Ingredient note) 1/3 cup  cider vinegar 1/2 teaspoon  salt, or to taste Freshly ground pepper  to taste Tip: To cook chestnuts: Eight ounces of fresh chestnuts yields about 1 cup peeled and cooked. Using a small knife, score a cross on the flat side of each chestnut. Using a slotted spoon, dip chestnuts, 4 or 5 at a time, into a saucepan of boiling water. Peel away shells and inner brown skins. If chestnuts are difficult to peel, return them to boiling water for a few seconds. Place peeled chestnuts in a large saucepan and add enough water to cover. Simmer, covered, until tender, 30 to 45 minutes. Drain and refresh with cold water.
