Perfectly Roasted Red Onions

Perfectly Roasted Red Onion goes great with everything and is a meal prep staple for us!! Red Onions perfectly roasted in olive oil, seasoned with minced garlic, oregano salt, and pepper. I love to roast up veggies and use them on my salad. It makes it easier when they are ready. Not to mention roasting veggies adds a ton more flavor and nutrients!

I came up with this recipe when I used a few onions. I was meal prepping for the week ahead, and I decided to roast them up and use them on salads with chicken and pork. As I was roasting onions, I decided to give them a little extra flavor, so I added minced garlic and oregano (my go-to spice lately). All I can say is WOW!

How I make Perfectly Roasted Red Onions:

First, start by slicing the onion. I prefer sliced, but you can cut it any way you want to. Add the Olive Oil to a sauté pan and heat it over medium-low heat. Once heated, add the onion and sauté for about six minutes stirring at least every two. Next, add the Minced Garlic, Dried Oregano, Black Pepper, and Sea Salt. Cook for another 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Make sure to watch it because the garlic roasts up quickly. Let them cool and ENJOY!

Perfectly Roasted Red Onions are perfect on Salads, my Savory Ranch Burgers, Jalapeño Bacon Turkey Burger or Balsamic Marinated Steak, and anything else you love these Perfectly Roasted Onions. ENJOY!
