Onioncups Recipes

Steps:

• Combine sour cream and horseradish; chill until ready to serve.
• Pre-heat oven to 400°F.
• Halve and peel red onion; CAREFULLY remove the outer TWO rings and place into shallow baking dish; upside down.
• Brush with oil and add 1/2 of salt and pepper.
• Roast for 15-20 minutes.
• Fry bacon.
• Chop peppers, garlic, and remaining onion; brown in leftover bacon grease for about 5 minutes.
• Place beets, rosemary, and remaining salt/pepper into pan with garlic and peppers; cook another 5 minutes.
• Carefully turn roasted onions right-side up and place veggies into each cup, stuffing until all mixture is used.
• Top with crumbled bacon.
• Return to oven and roast another 5 minutes.
• Serve with horseradish/sour cream sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with foil.
• Peel the onions and cut them in half along the equator. Cut the bottoms slightly so that the onions can sit cut-side up steadily. Use a spoon or melon baller to scoop the centers out of the onions, leaving about 1/4-inch (or 1 layer of onion) as the shell and reserving the scooped flesh. (The onions should look like little bowls.) Place the hollowed-out onions in the baking dish. Drizzle the olive oil over them and sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Roast the onions until they are soft and brown on the tops, about 30 minutes. Let rest until cool enough to handle. (Leave the oven on.)
• Meanwhile, roughly chop the reserved onion flesh. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions start to brown, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle in 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, or more if desired. Reduce the heat to medium and let the onions cook until they are very soft and brown, another 10 to 15 minutes. Pour 1/2 cup wine into the skillet and scrape up any brown bits. Let the wine cook out, then transfer the onions to a large bowl to cool slightly.
• Add and combine the sausage with the caramelized onions. Mix in the panko, thyme, garlic, half the Parmesan, half the parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
• Use a 1/2-cup ice cream scoop or measuring cup to add a heaping half cup of the sausage mixture to each roasted onion. They should be mounded; press everything in to keep it together. Pour the stock and remaining 1/2 cup wine into the bottom of the baking dish. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the onions from the oven, remove the foil, sprinkle the remaining Parmesan on the tops of the onions, then bake until the cheese is melted and browning and the sausage is browned, another 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, then sprinkle with the remaining parsley and serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter or margarine in 10" skillet; add onions. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden and caramelized (7-10 minutes). Stir in remaining filling ingredients. Continue cooking until heated through and no more liquid.
• Set aside. Allow to cool at least 10 minutes.
• Butter the insides of phyllo cups.
• Place phyllo cups on ungreased baking sheet; place about 1 scant teaspoon of onion mixture in center of cups. Top with 1 teaspoon cheese.
• Repeat the process with remaining phyllo cups.
• Bake 5-8 minutes or until golden brown. (Watch them so they don't burn!).
• Serve warm.
• *Filling can be made 1 day ahead. Just bring to room temperature when you are going to make the cups.*.
