1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over low heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook until soft -- about 10 minutes. Add the vinegar and honey, increase heat to medium, and cook for 2 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until the mixture has reduced and thickened -- about 40 minutes. Let cool. Store refrigerated in a covered container for up to 1 month.
