Ingredients

• 4 medium Red onions
• 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 sprig Fresh rosemary
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Peel the red onions and cut them into thick wedges, about 6-8 per onion, keeping the root ends intact to help hold the layers together while roasting.

Step 3

Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the rosemary sprig.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Arrange the onion wedges on a baking dish or sheet pan in a single layer.

Step 6

Drizzle the balsamic mixture evenly over the onions, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 7

Scatter the chopped rosemary over the onions for added aroma and flavor.

Step 8

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to prevent the onions from drying out, and roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil and continue roasting for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the onions are soft, caramelized, and lightly charred around the edges.

Step 10

Transfer the roasted onions to a serving dish and spoon any remaining balsamic glaze from the pan over the top.

Step 11

Serve warm as a side dish or use as a topping for salads, sandwiches, or pizzas.
