Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Red onions
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 sprig Fresh rosemary
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the red onions and cut them into thick wedges, about 6-8 per onion, keeping the root ends intact to help hold the layers together while roasting.
Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the rosemary sprig.
In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Arrange the onion wedges on a baking dish or sheet pan in a single layer.
Drizzle the balsamic mixture evenly over the onions, ensuring they are well coated.
Scatter the chopped rosemary over the onions for added aroma and flavor.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to prevent the onions from drying out, and roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue roasting for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the onions are soft, caramelized, and lightly charred around the edges.
Transfer the roasted onions to a serving dish and spoon any remaining balsamic glaze from the pan over the top.
Serve warm as a side dish or use as a topping for salads, sandwiches, or pizzas.
