BAKED ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.

• Combine butter and oil in a bowl.
• Brush onions liberally with mixture.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake 30 minutes or until golden brown.

EASY ROASTED ONIONS (WITH VARIATIONS)

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• Trim and peel the onions, removing and discarding their stem and root ends along with their papery peels. You can leave the smallest onions whole, but you will want to cut most onions into halves or quarters, depending on how big they are. Bigger than bite-size is fine, but you don't want diners wrestling with giant whole onions that are tricky to cut.
• Put the onions in a large baking dish (they should easily fit in a single layer for the best, most even roasting).
• Drizzle the onions with the oil and toss to coat them thoroughly and evenly. If you've cut them, arrange the onions so the cut-side is down, facing the pan (this will help them brown nicely).
• Sprinkle the onions with salt (sprinkle from a few inches above the onions so the salt falls more or less evenly over them).
• Bake the onions, turning them once or twice if you think of it until they're completely tender to the bite and browning on the edges-about 30 minutes total.
• Drizzle the onions with vinegar before serving, if you like. Start with a smaller amount of vinegar and add more to taste if you like the effect.

ROASTED ONIONS

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to lowest position; heat to 425 degrees.
• Cut onions in half; toss with oil and a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper. Place, cut-side down, on a lipped cookie sheet.
• Roast until tender and cut surfaces are golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Adjust seasonings; drizzle with balsamic vinegar.

BAKED CHICKEN AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place sliced onions and chicken pieces in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish or roasting pan. Drizzle with vegetable oil; season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Toss to coat.
• Arrange chicken, skin sides up, on top of onions; sprinkle with paprika.
• Bake, tossing onions and basting chicken occasionally, until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with the tip of a sharp paring knife, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve hot.

OVEN-CARAMELIZED ONIONS

• Add the onions to the prepared baking sheet and top with the remaining ingredients. Toss to combine thoroughly, separating the onion slices.
• the onion slices.
• Bake for 1 hour, tossing every 10 minutes with silicone tongs.
• By now the onions should be softened and golden in color. If it appears dry, add a splash more broth or water.
• Continue to bake for 15-20 minutes, tossing twice.
• Remove the onions from the oven and season with more salt and pepper if desired.

OVEN-BAKED ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Separate onion slices into individual rings.
• Whisk egg whites with milk in a bowl until thoroughly combined; season egg mixture with a pinch of cayenne pepper. Place panko crumbs into a separate bowl.
• Place onion rings into a large resealable plastic bag. Add flour, salt, and black pepper; seal bag and shake until rings are well coated with flour.
• Drop flour-coated onion rings into egg white-milk mixture, a few at a time, and toss lightly with tongs until coated. Place rings into panko crumbs and gently shake the bowl to toss the crumbs with the onion rings until rings are coated with crumbs.
• Transfer coated onion rings to a large baking sheet; spray rings lightly with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven until onion rings are tender and crumbs are lightly golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.

JAMIE OLIVER'S WORLD'S BEST BAKED ONIONS

Steps:

• Boil the onions in plenty of water for 15 minutes or until slightly tender.
• Remove the onions from the pan and allow to cool.
• With a sharp knife, remove the top inch of each onion, finely chop and place to one side.
• Slightly trim the stalk end of the onions so that the onions will sit flat on a roasting tray.
• Taking care to keep the outside of each onion intact, cut about a heaped tablespoon of onion out from the inside of each onion.
• Finely chop these removed sections of the onion and add to the rest of the chopped onion.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Heat a saute pan and add a little olive oil, the garlic, the chopped onions, and just a little of the chopped rosemary.
• Saute for a couple of minutes until the garlic and onion have softened, then turn the heat down, add the cream and remove the onions and garlic from the heat.
• Stir in the Parmesan and season.
• Wrap a slice of pancetta around the middle of each onion and spike it in place with a sharpened twig of rosemary or a wooden toothpick.
• Place the onions on a roasting tray and spoon some of the chopped onion mixture inside each one.
• Bake in the preheated oven for around 25 minutes until the onions are soft and tender.
• How long this takes is, of course, dependent on the size of the onions. "It's cool to experiment with different cheeses, so give it a bash," says Jamie.
• I presume he is suggesting topping the baked onions with cheese.
• When the onions are cooked right through, remove and serve.

• Combine chickpea flour, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon coriander, and salt in a bowl and mix well. Mix in the onions and tomato puree; add a little water until mixture is wet and easy to stir.
• Drizzle 1 teaspoon olive oil onto the prepared baking sheet. Place 2 tablespoons of the onion mixture onto the baking sheet for each bhaji; flatten slightly with the back of a spoon.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Drizzle remaining oil over the bhajis and continue baking until golden brown, about 25 minutes.

CARAMELIZED ONIONS - OVEN BAKED - GREAT FOR OAMC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500°F.
• Spread a large sheet of foil on top of a baking sheet leaving enough to pull around the onions (and seal) once they're baked.
• Roughly chop and place the onions in a large bowl. Toss with just enough of the oil to lightly coat. Salt and pepper to taste. You can also use a little cayenne or red pepper flakes if you like the spice.
• Put prepared onions on the foil covered tray and spread out as much as possible.
• Bake 30 - 40 minutes Do not let onions burn.
• Remove from oven and carefully seal the onions in the foil they were baked on.
• Set foil packet aside for 5-10 minutes so onions can finish steaming.
• If preparing to use as a sauce or condiment, substitute melted butter for the olive oil. I don't use butter if I'm making these to use in my freezer meals.
