Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Large yellow onions
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Peel the onions and cut each one into 6-8 equal wedges, depending on their size.
Place the onion wedges in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil over the onions and sprinkle with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme.
Gently toss the onion wedges with your hands or a spatula to ensure they are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the seasoned onion wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, keeping some space between them for even roasting.
Roast the onions in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are tender and caramelized around the edges.
Remove the onions from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and added flavor, if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish or add to salads, sandwiches, or grain bowls.
