Ingredients

2 red onions
1 yellow onion
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 tablespoon minced fresh thyme leaves
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup good olive oil
1/2 tablespoon minced fresh parsley leaves

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Remove the stem end of each onion and carefully slice off the brown part of the root end, leaving the root intact. Peel the onion. Stand each onion root end up on a cutting board and cut the onion in wedges through the root. Place the wedges in a bowl.

For the dressing, combine the lemon juice, mustard, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Pour the dressing over the onions and toss well.

With a slotted spoon, transfer the onions to a sheet pan, reserving the vinaigrette that remains in the bowl. Bake the onions for 30 to 45 minutes, until tender and browned. Toss the onions once during cooking. Remove from the oven, and drizzle with the reserved dressing. Sprinkle with parsley, season to taste and serve warm or at room temperature.

I don't usually like onions... but I LOVED these.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My boyfriend loves onions, so I figured I'd try this recipe out. I followed it exactly and was blown away by how wonderful... it was. I paired it with Ina's garlic mashed potatoes and her chicken picatta. What a perfect meal... the sweetness of the onions combined with the tartness of the sauce was perfect! Ina has done it again... no surprise!Read more

Tastee onions
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made these roasted onions for dinner and they were terrific. I didn't use the extra butter called for at the end of the... recipe but the flavors were still perfect. I am a huge fan of Ina's and will make this recipe again and again. Thanks Ina.Read more

Too much
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

I love roasted onions and veggies but the sauce covered the flavor from the onion. I couldn't eat them. Next time I will just... stick to olive oil and herbs.Read more
