Balsamic Roasted Red Onions

Source of Recipe

Fields of Greens,Annie Sommerville (Curtis Jackson)


List of Ingredients

3 medium red onions
pepper (original recipe contained salt as well)
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar


Recipe

Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Remove the outermost layer of onion skin, spray the onions with cooking spray, and sprinkle them with pepper. Place the onions close together in a baking dish and roast, uncovered, about 1 1/2 hours, until tender when pricked with a fork. ( The onions will release their juices while roasting and should be soft but not mushy.)

Remove the onions from the pan and set aside. Add the water to the baking dish and stir to loosen and collect the pan juices; transfer to a small saucepan. Add the vinegar and cook over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes, reducing the mixture to about 1/4 cup syrup.

Cut the onions in half lengthwise and brush the cut surface generously with the syrup, allowing it to sink down into the layers. Sprinkle with pepper to taste and serve.
