Ingredients

  • 4 medium to large Vidalia onions
  • 3 Tablespoons soft unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • pepper
  • 4 beef bouillon cubes may use chicken or vegetable crushed.
  • extra-virgin olive oil
  • Smoked paprika
  • Balsamic glaze optional
  • Butter crunch lettuce or some other similar lettuce

Instructions

  • Skin and core onions. Coring the onion is a lot like coring an apple -- use a sharp knife and be careful not to cut through bottom of onion. Cut a cross on the top of the onion taking care not to go all the way down.
  • Place the onions on a sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil. Make sure the foil is large enough to bring all edges up and over the onions once they are filled. Place the onions and foil on a baking tray.
  • In a small bowl mix together the soft butter, garlic, pepper, crushed bouillon cubes
  • Fill each onion core with the butter mixture.
  • Rub each onion with olive oil and season with salt and pepper and smoked paprika
  • Bring the foil up and over the onions sealing the foil.
  • Bake in a preheated 425 F. for 30 minutes or until tender. The size of the onions will make a difference.
  • Serve the onions on the lettuce, then drizzle some of the delicious juice over the onion and the balsamic glaze over the onion and lettuce.

Notes

  • Recipe can be easily increased or decreased. You can also roast the onion on the grill
