Roasted foil pack onions are a simple yet flavorful side dish that enhances any meal. With a few basic ingredients and easy preparation, you can enjoy the delicious combination of sweet and savory flavors.
These ratios are for 1 onion. You can make as many or few as you want.
Cut the roots off and the top off, then peel the onion. (If you're cooking more than one onion, try to get them the same size so they'll cook at the same time.)
Cut the onion into 4ths but don't cut all the way through the onion. Keep it connected at the bottom. Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the onion from the center. (I put this in the bottom of the pan or foil.)
1 small to medium Vidalia onion
Place the onion on aluminum foil large enough to wrap it. You can also put it in a casserole dish. Because I didn't want to lose any of the liquid, I put each onion in a ramekin and wrapped it in foil. (The foil holds in the heat and helps cook the onion.)
Now top the onion with salt, pepper, bone broth, butter, then brown sugar in that order.
1 pinch each salt and pepper to taste, 1 teaspoon beef bone broth concentrate, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 teaspoon brown sugar
Close the foil pack securely.
Bake or grill at 400℉ for 35 to 45 minutes, depending on how tender you want it.
Serve hot.
Notes
These ratios are for 1 onion. You can make as many or as few as you want.
Check the sodium content of your bone broth. You may not need to add salt.
