There are several variations of this on line but there is nothing wrong with an un-enhanced treat. If you want to try some different treatments try brushing the onions with Shiraka sauce, BBQ sauce, or soy sauce.
Ingredients:
- 3-4 sweet onions, large (the flater the better – like Maui onions)
- 2 lbs bacon, not thick sliced
- Toothpicks
Directions:
- Cut the root end and stem end off the onion.
- Peel the skin from the outer layer of the onion.
- Cut the onion into ½ inch slices and remove the centers to only leave about 2 layers. (If your onions are large enough you may get another two layer piece from the center.)
- Wrap strips of bacon around the edges of the onion slices. Expect to use about 2-3 slices each.
- Lay the bacon wrapped onion rings onto a lined rimmed pan.
- Bake at 300° for 30 minutes.
- If the bacon is not quite done, turn the rings over and finish in the broiler.
- Serve immediately when finished.
Serves: 4-6
