Balsamic Roasted Onions Recipes

ROASTED BALSAMIC ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, toss the onion quarters with the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sugar, and season with salt and pepper. Place in an ovenproof, large, nonstick skillet, spreading them out in an even layer. Cover the skillet with aluminum foil. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, and then remove the foil. Toss the onions well to coat with the reduced balsamic glaze and put back in the oven to roast another 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm.

BALSAMIC ROASTED ONIONS

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the onions to the pan and lay them flat on their sides. Cook on each side for 3 to 4 minutes, or until browned, being careful as you flip them. Add chicken stock, balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the pan. Add dots of butter around the pan. Turn the onions in the liquid so they are nice and coated.
• Place the skillet in the oven and roast for 25 minutes, stirring on occasion so the onions don't stick to the pan. Roast until the onions are nice and soft and the balsamic is caramelized.

BALSAMIC ROASTED ONIONS

Steps:

• Position 1 rack in center and 1 rack in bottom third of oven; preheat to 500°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with foil. Cut onions through root end into 3/4-inch-thick wedges. Place in medium bowl; toss with oil. Arrange onions, cut side down, on baking sheets. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until onions are brown and tender, rotating pans in oven and turning onions once, about 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in heavy small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add sugar and stir until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat. Add vinegar. Return to heat. Simmer until mixture thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. (Onions and balsamic glaze can be made 1 day ahead. Cool. Cover separately and chill. Rewarm onions in 375°F oven about 15 minutes. Stir glaze over low heat to rewarm.)
• Arrange onions on platter. Drizzle glaze over. Sprinkle with parsley.

BALSAMIC ROASTED ONIONS

Steps:

• Cut ends off onions, leaving stem and core intact. Quarter onions through core and peel away skin.

• Remove onions from refrigerator 30 minutes before roasting and bring to room temperature.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly spray a baking pan with olive oil cooking spray.
• Place onions cut side up in prepared baking pan and pour marinade over top. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
• Roast in preheated oven for 25 minutes or until fork tender. (If onions begin to brown too quickly, cover loosely with foil.)

Steps:

• Position 1 rack in center and 1 rack in bottom third of oven; preheat to 500°F.
• Line 2 large baking sheets with foil.
• Cut onions crosswise nearly, but not quite, all the way through. Make two or three more sectional cuts - always stopping before you cut through, so that onion is in 3/4-inch-thick wedges (the onion stays attached at one end and resembles an onion 'flower' (with very thick petals ;-) ).
• Place in medium bowl; toss with oil.
• Arrange onions, cut side down, on baking sheets.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Roast until onions are brown and tender, rotating pans in oven and turning onions once, about 45 minutes (they will caramelize and be quite dark in parts but, if you have coated them well with olive oil, will not have a 'burnt' taste).
• Meanwhile, melt butter in heavy small saucepan over medium-high heat.
• Add sugar and stir until sugar dissolves.
• Remove from heat.
• Add vinegar.
• Return to heat.
• Simmer until mixture thickens slightly, about 2 minutes.
• (Onions and balsamic glaze can be made 1 day ahead. Cool. Cover separately and chill. Rewarm onions in 375°F oven about 15 minutes. Stir glaze over low heat to rewarm.) Arrange onions on platter.
• Drizzle glaze over.
• Sprinkle with parsley.

BALSAMIC-ROASTED ONIONS

Steps:

• Slice about 1/4-inch from top and bottom of each onion. Peel onions, removing outer layer of flesh as well. Score onions about 3/4 of the way down, cutting at 1/4-inch intervals in a crisscross pattern. Place onions in a bowl of ice water for 2 to 4 hours, until cut area looks ruffled. Drain upside down 10 minutes.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Place onions in a baking dish that holds them closely.
• Beat vinegar and honey together, and season with salt and pepper. Brush over onions. Dot each with butter. Pour cider into baking dish. Cover dish with foil and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and baste with pan juices. Bake uncovered 30 minutes more, basting every 10 minutes. Baste again and serve.

PAN-ROASTED BALSAMIC ONIONS

Steps:

• Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add white and red pearl and cipollini onions, and boil for 1 minute. Drain. Let stand until cool enough to handle, then carefully peel, leaving root and stem ends intact. Transfer to a large bowl, and add 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; toss to combine.
• Meanwhile, remove any damaged outer leaves from leeks, then trim and discard dark-green tops. Trim roots of leeks without cutting off the base. Cut them in half lengthwise, and let soak in a large bowl of cold water for 5 to 10 minutes to rid them of dirt and sand. Lift leeks from water, pat dry, and place in a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt; toss to combine.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil and leeks. Saute leeks until slightly tender and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove leeks from skillet, and set aside.
• Add remaining tablespoon oil and white, red, and cipollini onions to skillet, and saute turning occasionally, until browned all over, about 5 to 7 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium low, and add balsamic vinegar and stock; cover skillet, and cook until onions are tender, 20 to 30 minutes, adding the leeks to pan after 10 to 15 minutes. Uncover, and add butter; increase heat to high, and cook, shaking pan occasionally, until liquid reduces to a glaze and coats the onions, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish, and garnish with thyme leaves. Season with salt and pepper if desired, and serve immediately.

Steps:

Drizzle over the oil and balsamic vinegar, season, then get your hands in and toss the onions to coat. Cover the tin with foil and roast for 40 mins until tender.
• Remove the foil and drizzle over the maple syrup, then return to the oven, uncovered, for 20-30 mins, until the onions are caramelised.
