Best 9 Roasted Stuffed Onions The Naked Chef Jamie Oliver Recipes

JAMIE OLIVER'S WORLD'S BEST BAKED ONIONS

Steps:

• Boil the onions in plenty of water for 15 minutes or until slightly tender.
• Remove the onions from the pan and allow to cool.
• With a sharp knife, remove the top inch of each onion, finely chop and place to one side.
• Slightly trim the stalk end of the onions so that the onions will sit flat on a roasting tray.
• Taking care to keep the outside of each onion intact, cut about a heaped tablespoon of onion out from the inside of each onion.
• Finely chop these removed sections of the onion and add to the rest of the chopped onion.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Heat a saute pan and add a little olive oil, the garlic, the chopped onions, and just a little of the chopped rosemary.
• Saute for a couple of minutes until the garlic and onion have softened, then turn the heat down, add the cream and remove the onions and garlic from the heat.
• Stir in the Parmesan and season.
• Wrap a slice of pancetta around the middle of each onion and spike it in place with a sharpened twig of rosemary or a wooden toothpick.
• Place the onions on a roasting tray and spoon some of the chopped onion mixture inside each one.
• Bake in the preheated oven for around 25 minutes until the onions are soft and tender.
• How long this takes is, of course, dependent on the size of the onions. "It's cool to experiment with different cheeses, so give it a bash," says Jamie.
• I presume he is suggesting topping the baked onions with cheese.
• When the onions are cooked right through, remove and serve.

ROASTED RED ONION WITH THYME AND BUTTER

Steps:

• Try to get 6 equal-sized medium to large red onions. Remove the first layer of skin. With a knife, just take the bottom of the core end of the onion off, to give it a flat base, and make 2 cuts in a cross-shape in the top, cutting half way down (do not cut right through into quarters). Push some chopped or pounded fresh thyme into these gaps with a good pinch of salt (it's important to get the salt right into the gaps) and a little knob of butter. I prefer to cook the onions in an earthenware dish on a thin layer of sea salt or I put them in with my roast chicken or lamb and they cook quite happily in the same tray. Place in the oven fat 200C/400 F/Gas 6 for 30-35 minutes.
• These onions are great with a roast, so tasty and sweet.

BAKED STUFFED ONIONS

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.

ROASTED STUFFED ONIONS

Steps:

• Make onion shells:
• Cut a 1/2-inch-thick slice from tops of onions, discarding tops, and trim just enough from bottoms for onions to stand upright. Scoop out all but outer 2 or 3 layers from each using a small ice cream scoop or spoon (don't worry if you make a hole in the bottom), reserving scooped-out onion and onion shells separately.
• Make stuffing:
• Coarsely chop enough scooped-out onion to measure 3 cups.
• Cook bacon in 2 batches in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until crisp, about 10 minutes, then transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain, reserving about 1/3 cup fat in skillet.
• Add chopped onion, celery, salt, and pepper to skillet and sauté over moderately high heat, stirring, until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté, stirring, 1 minute. Transfer mixture to a large bowl and stir in spinach, bread, cashews, butter, 1 cup stock, and bacon, then cool completely.
• Roast onions:
• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Arrange onion shells, open sides up, in a 13- by 9- by 2-inch baking pan, then add 1/2cup water and cover pan tightly with foil. Roast onions in middle of oven until tender but not falling apart, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Stuff and bake onions:
• Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
• Transfer shells to a work surface and pour off water in pan. Fill shells with stuffing, mounding it, and return to pan. Reserve 5 to 7 cups stuffing for turkey cavity, then put remaining stuffing in a buttered shallow 3 1/2-quart baking dish and drizzle with remaining 1/4 cup stock. Bake stuffed onions and stuffing in dish in middle of oven, uncovered, until heated through, about 25 minutes.

ROASTED RED ONIONS

Steps:

• This recipe works great as a stand-alone dish, but also as a component in Jamie's Steak night from Together - see the full collection of menus here.
• ON THE DAY Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6. Peel the onions, cut into 1cm-thick rounds and place in a large roasting tray. Dot over the butter and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then peel, slice and scatter in the garlic, as well as the sprigs of thyme. Add a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, toss together, then arrange in a single layer. Roast for 30 minutes on the middle shelf, giving the tray a jiggle halfway through. Remove, drizzle with the honey and red wine vinegar, mix well and shake flat. Cover with tin foil until needed.
• TO SERVE When the steak is resting, return the onions to the oven, covered, for 15 minutes, or until sticky and sweet. Before serving, season to perfection, tasting and tweaking.

ROASTED RED ONIONS - JAMIE OLIVER

Steps:

• Try to get 6 equal-sized medium or large red onions. Peel away the outermost layer of onionskin. Carefully slice off the core end of each onion to create a flat base. Make two cuts at right angles through the top of the onion, cutting only halfway through.
• Push some chopped fresh thyme and kosher salt down into the cuts, along with a tablespoon of soft butter for each onion.
• Cook in an earthenware dish, or in a roasting pan on a layer of kosher salt or sea salt. Place in a preheated 400F oven for 30-35 minute.
• You can also tuck the onions into the roasting pan with your chicken or lamb as it roasts.

STUFFED ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. In a Dutch oven, bring a small amount of water to a boil. Peel onions; using a slotted spoon, place onions in boiling water. Cook for 4-6 minutes more until softened; remove and let stand until cool enough to handle. Cut a 1/4-in. slice off the top of each onion. Remove center, leaving a 1/2-in shell. Chop centers and tops of onions; set aside. In a skillet, cook bacon until crisp; remove to paper towel to drain. In the drippings, saute chopped onion until tender. Stir in bread crumbs and parsley. Add the butter and mushrooms; cook until mushrooms are tender. Add bacon, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Stuff onion shells; place in an ungreased shallow 1-qt. baking dish. Pour broth around onions. Bake, uncovered, until tender, 45 minutes, basting frequently during the first 15 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with parsley.

BAKED STUFFED ONIONS

Steps:

• Peel the onions leaving the root end uncut.
• Put the onions in a pot and cover them with water, bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes.
• Remove the onions from the pot and cool.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut off one quarter of the onion removing the root, scoop out a third of the inside (discard or use in some other recipe).
• Mix the bread crumbs, parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, green onion and 2 tablespoons of butter.
• Add salt and pepper to the bread crumb mixture if desired.
• Place the onions in a greased baking dish and fill with stuffing.
• Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of butter.
• Bake the onions for 30-40 minutes or until soft.

STUFFED ONIONS

Steps:

• Trim the very ends of the onions. Make an incision in each, from top to root, then another 0.5cm along, so you can cut out and discard a thin wedge (like you're discarding a segment of orange). Bring a pan of water to the boil and add the onions. Boil for 10 mins, remove from the water and let cool. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
• When the onions are cool enough to handle, carefully peel and set aside their outer layers - you want about 12-16 large layers in total, which will become the outer casing for the lamb filling. You can use the smaller, leftover layers in the middle for another recipe.
• Mix all the stuffing ingredients in a bowl and season well. Shape into 12-16 oval meatballs. Put each one on an onion layer and roll it up to create what looks like a small, peeled onion.
• Pour half the olive oil into a large, shallow casserole dish or roasting tin, then arrange all the stuffed onions on top in a tight, single layer. Drizzle over the remaining oil and bake for 45 mins. Brush with the molasses and bake for another 15-20 mins until the casings are really soft and dark golden brown. Serve with the root vegetable rice and the herby yogurt dressing on the side.
