This unexpected side dish is perfect to serve alongside grilled steak or pork chops. Even if you're not an onion fan, the low heat and long cooking time of this dish mellows and sweetens the sometimes sharp raw onion flavors that many dislike.-Erin Chilcoat, Smithtown, New York

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 medium sweet onions
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt, plus more for cooking water
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 ounces (about 9) cremini mushrooms, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
4 ounces Virginia ham, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons Madeira wine
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 cup grated (about 2 ounces) Gruyere cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel onions; slice 1/2 inch from top of each, and discard. Slice just enough from the root end so that onions stand upright. Using a melon baller, hollow out the insides, leaving a 1/3- to 1/2-inch-thick shell. Set aside. Finely chop removed parts, and set 1 cup chopped onion aside. Discard remaining onion or reserve for another use.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add salt. Gently submerge onion shells, and boil 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon; transfer to a wire rack to dry.
  • Make the stuffing: In a large saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add reserved chopped onions, and cook until translucent, about 8 minutes. Add mushrooms and ham, and season with salt and pepper; cook until mixture is browned, about 5 minutes. Add Madeira; deglaze pan, stirring with a wooden spoon to loosen any brown bits on bottom. Remove from heat, and transfer to a small mixing bowl; let cool slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Add parsley and Gruyere cheese, and stir to combine.
  • Fill boiled onion shells with stuffing. Place in a small roasting pan; drizzle with remaining tablespoon oil. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake until tender, about 50 minutes; remove foil after 40 minutes to allow stuffing to brown.

SAUSAGE STUFFED ONION



Sausage Stuffed Onion image

Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 medium to large red onions
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1 cup white wine
1 pound sweet or spicy Italian sausage, casings removed
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon thyme leaves
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with foil.
  • Peel the onions and cut them in half along the equator. Cut the bottoms slightly so that the onions can sit cut-side up steadily. Use a spoon or melon baller to scoop the centers out of the onions, leaving about 1/4-inch (or 1 layer of onion) as the shell and reserving the scooped flesh. (The onions should look like little bowls.) Place the hollowed-out onions in the baking dish. Drizzle the olive oil over them and sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Roast the onions until they are soft and brown on the tops, about 30 minutes. Let rest until cool enough to handle. (Leave the oven on.)
  • Meanwhile, roughly chop the reserved onion flesh. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions start to brown, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle in 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, or more if desired. Reduce the heat to medium and let the onions cook until they are very soft and brown, another 10 to 15 minutes. Pour 1/2 cup wine into the skillet and scrape up any brown bits. Let the wine cook out, then transfer the onions to a large bowl to cool slightly.
  • Add and combine the sausage with the caramelized onions. Mix in the panko, thyme, garlic, half the Parmesan, half the parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Use a 1/2-cup ice cream scoop or measuring cup to add a heaping half cup of the sausage mixture to each roasted onion. They should be mounded; press everything in to keep it together. Pour the stock and remaining 1/2 cup wine into the bottom of the baking dish. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the onions from the oven, remove the foil, sprinkle the remaining Parmesan on the tops of the onions, then bake until the cheese is melted and browning and the sausage is browned, another 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, then sprinkle with the remaining parsley and serve warm.

BAKED STUFFED ONIONS



Baked Stuffed Onions image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h45m

Yield 8 side dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large Spanish onions (about 1 pound each), skin-on
7 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 large sprigs fresh thyme, plus 2 teaspoons finely chopped thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large clove garlic
20 ounces spinach, stems removed, washed and dried
Grated zest of 1 lemon
2 large eggs, lightly beaten with a fork
Pinch of cayenne pepper, or more to taste
1 cup sourdough bread crumbs
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Trim the ends of the onions, leaving the skins on, and cut them in half horizontally. Put the onions, cut-side up, in a baking dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the oil; scatter the thyme sprigs over the top and season with salt and pepper. Add 2 cups of water, cover with foil, and bake for 1 hour. Remove the foil and bake, basting with the pan juices until the edges of the onions are browned, about 45 minutes to 1 hour more. (Add more water if pan is running dry.) Remove from the oven and cool.
  • Smash the garlic clove with the side of a cook's knife. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat, add the garlic and stir until golden, about 3 minutes. Remove the garlic and discard. Working in batches, add the spinach, stirring to wilt before each addition. When all the spinach has been added, raise the heat to high, season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Cover and cook until fully wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain the spinach in a colander. When cool enough to handle, squeeze as much liquid from the spinach as possible and coarsely chop.
  • Lower the oven heat to 350 degrees F.
  • Scoop out the center of each onion, leaving at least half an inch of the outer rings, to make onion "bowls". Coarsely chop half of the onion centers, and reserve the remaining for another use. In a mixing bowl combine the chopped onion, spinach, lemon zest, eggs, cayenne, breadcrumbs, chopped thyme, and feta cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the mixture evenly among the scooped-out onions. Drizzle the tops with the remaining olive oil and bake for 30 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.
