Microwavebakedonions Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a stoveproof gratin dish over medium-high heat; add 4 pounds Vidalia onions (cut into wedges) and cook 5 minutes. Add a pinch each of nutmeg, cayenne, salt and black pepper, then add 3 tablespoons white wine and simmer 2 minutes. Whisk 1 1/4 cups half-and-half and 3 tablespoons flour; stir into the onions and bring to a boil. Mix 2 tablespoons melted butter, 1 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs), 2 tablespoons chopped chives, and salt and pepper. Sprinkle over the onion, cover with parchment paper and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and broil until golden, 5 more minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Peel onions, leaving bases intact and place in a baking dish.
• Combine butter and oil in a bowl.
• Brush onions liberally with mixture.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Slice the onion/s just as you would for frying them for burgers or hot-dogs and place on a microwaveable plate (or in a microwaveable bowl if doing lots of onions to feed several people).
• Add oil or a knob of butter if desired.
• Microwave for 2 - 3 minutes or until done, gently stir/mix halfway through cooking time.
• Microwaves vary greatly in strength, but as a guide, for one medium onion - enough for a good sized hot dog, in my 1000W machine I microwave on high for 1 minute 30 seconds then loosely mix with my fingers. I then set the microwave for another 1 minute 30 seconds but I don't press start until the sausages/burgers etc are almost finished being grilled then press start just before serving so that the onion is piping hot.
• They have a bit more 'kick' to them than pan-fried onions if you do them without the fat. If using oil or butter do go easy as very little is required.
• It's a viable and very handy way of 'frying' onions whether you're a healthy-eating fanatic like me or not!

Steps:

• Peel onions and cut in half horizontally. Place in a 1-quart casserole dish.
• Top each onion half with salt and pepper to taste. Add a pat of butter, using 1/2 teaspoon to 1/2 tablespoon per onion.
• Cover and cook at 100% power (HIGH) for 8 to 10 minutes, or until onions are soft.
• Uncover and top each half with shredded cheese to taste.
• Pop back in microwave and zap just long enough to melt the cheese.
• If you prefer, bake the onions one hour in a conventional 350-degree oven, topping with cheese when baking has finished.
• An alternate topping: Prepare onions as above, but top each half with 1/2 tablespoon EACH butter and brown sugar.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in microwave safe container.
• Cover.
• Microwave on high for 12-14 minute.
• sometimes I add 1 t. liquid smoke and/or cooked bacon.

Steps:

• Cook potatoes in microwave for 10 minutes or until cooked. Cut across top of potatoes, and scoop out inside to make a bowl. Mix insides with all other ingredients, and stuff potatoes. Heat again in microwave for 5 minutes. Serve with a tossed green salad or a steak.

Stir in beans, ketchup, molasses, mustard powder, and 1/3 cup water. Cover and microwave until beans are tender and liquid has thickened, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in vinegar, and serve alongside hot dogs or burgers.
