These delicious onions are the perfect side to any simple beef recipe, whether grilled or microwaved
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 9 hours
Total Time: 9 hours, 10 minutes
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients:
- 4 to 6 large sweet or yellow onions
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup butter (NOT margarine ) OR 1/4 to 1/2 cup olive oil
Preparation:
Peel onions and cut off some of the top and bottom. In a 4-6 quart crockpot, place peeled whole onions and top with the butter or olive oil. Cover and cook on low for 9-11 hours: 7-8 hours if you have a newer, hotter cooking crockpot.
The onions will literally fall apart, get a deep golden brown color, with sweet caramelized flavor. Use them as omelet fillings, in sandwiches, soups, casseroles, as an appetizer with softened cream cheese or ricotta cheese, in spaghetti sauce and as a condiment with any grilled meat
