Herb Roasted Onions Recipes

ROASTED ONIONS WITH HERBS

Steps:

• In a large, zip-top, plastic bag combine the lemon juice, mustard, garlic, thyme, salt, pepper and olive oil. To prepare the onions, remove the stem end (pointed end) of each onion and carefully slice off the brown part of the root end so that you leave the root intact. Remove the onion's peel and cut each onion in half from root to stem. Continue to cut each onion half into wedges through the root so that the wedge remains whole. (View a tutorial on cutting onions into wedges.) Add the onions to the bag with the marinade and place into the refrigerator for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Remove the onions from the bag with a slotted spoon and place them on a baking sheet. Reserve the marinade. Bake the onions for 15 minutes then toss the onions so that the other sides can cook evenly. Put the onions back into the oven for another 15 to 30 minutes or until tender and browned. Remove from the oven, drizzle with the reserved marinade and sprinkle with parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ROASTED STUFFED ONIONS WITH BACON AND HERBS

Steps:

• Peel the onions, but leave the root end intact. Pour about 2 inches of water into a large saucepan and set up a collapsible steamer inside. Steam the onions until easily pieced by a knife, about 30 minutes. (For more tender onions you may steam them a little longer; however, they might be somewhat harder to hollow out. Either way they're delicious!) Set aside to cool. Slice off about a third of the top portion of each onion. Using a paring knife, cut out the insides of each onion, leaving about 4 outside layers intact, to make a container for stuffing. Chop the onion insides and tops. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring, until crispy and the fat has rendered, about 3 minutes. Add the chopped onion, herb sprigs, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and sugar. Season with pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 12 minutes. Add the wine and cook until dry, scrapping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to get up any browned bits, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cream and remove from the heat. Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Stir in the cheese and mustard. Lightly butter a baking dish. Season the inside of the onions with salt and pepper, and spoon the stuffing into each onion cavity, mounding it slightly on top. Set the onions in the dish. Heat the butter in the skillet. Add the breadcrumbs and stir until they absorb the butter. Spoon the buttered breadcrumbs on top of each onion. Roast the onions until well browned and heated through, about 40 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

HERB ROASTED CIPOLLINI ONIONS WITH PORCINI MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place onions in a large bowl, cover them with boiling water, and let stand for 10 minutes. Drain onions in a colander. When cool enough to handle, peel onions, and transfer them to another bowl.
• Add butter, fresh thyme, 2 teaspoons rosemary, and dried thyme to onions, and toss well. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer onions to a large, shallow roasting pan, and arrange in a single layer. Roast onions, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and turn brown, about 1 hour. Remove from oven.
• Meanwhile, soak mushrooms in 2 1/2 cups very hot water for 30 minutes. Lift mushrooms out of soaking liquid with a slotted spoon, and strain mushroom liquid through a sieve lined with several layers of cheesecloth (to remove grit from liquid). Chop strained mushrooms coarsely. Add strained liquid and chopped mushrooms to roasting pan with onions, and stir to combine.
• Return pan to oven, and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced by three-quarters and onions are soft and brown, about 1 hour. Adjust seasoning; just before serving, sprinkle with remaining teaspoon rosemary.

HERB ROASTED MINI POTATOES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Slice your potatoes and onions - you can either do discs or slivers, up to you! Boil your potatoes in a pot of water for a few minutes to soften - you should be able to stab them with a fork without too much effort - do not over cook because you will be baking them too. Grease a baking sheet with a little olive oil and lay your potatoes and onions out on the sheet Sprinkle your herbs, salt, pepper and fresh garlic all over your potatoes and onions, i love using rosemary, oregano, paprika (for color), salt and pepper Drizzle a little more olive oil over the top and pop in the oven Bake for about 10 to 15 minutes, you may want to give is a mix halfway through so your potatoes and onions get browned evenly For an extra brown and crispy effect, blast your potatoes and onions under the broiler for 1 or 2 minutes - make sure to supervise so you don't burn them! Remove, cool and serve with ketchup or a dipping sauce of equal parts ketchup and Vegenaise (vegan mayo)
