Onion Boil
This is Mama Miche and today in my magic kitchen: Viral Onion Boil with Twice Stolen Spice.
I love onions, which is funny because I did not like them as a child. But as they say, your taste buds change, and if I'm gonna have a steak, I want some caramelized onions, and on a cold rainy or snowy day, few soups hit harder than French onion. Yum yum. So, obviously, I'm gonna try this viral onion boil with my Twice Stolen Spice™ and damn if it ain't fire!
Mama Miche makes your kitchen magic; make this, MMMK?!? Let's eat.
Tools
Large chef knife
Cutting board or mat
Aluminum foil
Oven safe cookware
Ingredients
Makes 1-2 servings
1 large onion, peeled and ends trimmed off
2 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Twice Stolen Spice™
optional garnish: parsley or basil leaves.
Directions
Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook Time: 60 minutes
Prep
Preheat oven to 375°F
Season the onion. Use a melon baller to scoop out the top center portion of the onion (about ⅓ of the way down) to make a well in the center.
Place the onion on a sheet of aluminum foil and add the butter into the well.
Mix the seasonings with the olive oil and pour over the butter into the well, allowing the oil and seasoning mixture to drip down the sides of the onion.
Wrap and seal the onion tightly in the aluminum foil and place it in a small baking dish or cast iron skillet.
Cook
Roast on the center rack of the oven for 1 hour.
Remove from the oven and open the foil to check on the onion. The entire onion should be fork-tender and the center jiggly. It also should be slightly caramelized.
If it needs more time to cook, simply reseal the foil and pop it back in the oven for another 10 minutes.
Remove and turn the oven to broil. Open the foil and drizzle more melted butter (or olive oil)
Broil for 5-10 minutes. Watch closely to avoid burning.
Serve. Gently put the onion in a bowl and pour all the juices from the foil overtop the onion. Sprinkle with fresh herbs.
