Make Honey Roasted Onions Tonight
Sometimes we just need some comfort food.
I am a huge fan of the humble onion. At any given time, if you looked in my pantry — you’d see a 5-pound bag of onions staring back at you.
Onions are often thought of as an ingredient you only add to other dishes. They are seen as the co-star who doesn’t get the spotlight. But one of my favorite side dishes is when I make the onion the star.
I’ve roasted onions this way for years and I use what I have on hand — onions, honey, butter, and some dried red pepper flakes. Weirdly — some of the best comfort food recipes come from necessity. (I even made them with maple syrup once and it was also fantastic.)
This simple dish can be paired with any kind of meat — from a burger to a fancy roasted salmon. But be prepared for all the lovely comments you’ll get about these delicious, melt-in-your-mouth onions. (And onions are good for you which makes them an even bigger superstar.)
They are an absolute knock-out!
