Broccoli With Sweet Onion Vinaigrette image

This quick and easy recipe comes from the Renees Dressing that is used in the salad....I've modified it slightly. It is absolutely delicious....sweet and tangy and refreshing...and the colour of it is beautiful. You should prepare it just before serving, which may be it's only setback, but it doesn't take long. I hope you enjoy it!

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1/2 large sweet vidalia onion roasted
10 clove garlic
1/4 c fresh parsley chopped
1/4 c sugar
1/4 c dijon mustard
2 c extra virgin olive oil
1/3 c champagne vinegar
1/2 c water
1 tsp each salt and pepper

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place the onion on a baking pan drizzle with a little olive oil. Roast until the onion is nice and browned. Remove from oven and let cool
2. Place the onion in a food processor with the rest of the ingredients. Process until well incorporated

Tips:

Choose the right onions: Sweet onions, such as Vidalia or Walla Walla, are best for this vinaigrette. They have a mild, sweet flavor that won't overpower the other ingredients.
Slice the onions thinly: This will help them release their flavor more easily.
Use a good quality vinegar: A good balsamic or red wine vinegar will add depth of flavor to the vinaigrette.
Season to taste: Be sure to taste the vinaigrette before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
Let the vinaigrette rest: This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Sweet onion vinaigrette is a versatile dressing that can be used on salads, grilled vegetables, or even as a marinade for chicken or fish. It's a great way to add a pop of flavor to your next meal.
