directions

  • If preparing in the oven, preheat oven to 350 degree F. Trim and peel the onion but leave the root intact. Cut a very thin sliver off of the root end if you need to level the onion so it will stand upright. Cut about a 1 inch core out of the top of the onion.
  • Peel garlic and cut into slivers. Stuff one clove into each onion. Place the onion onto a square of foil large enough to wrap around the onion and enclose the top. Double wrap if cooking on the grill.
  • Drizzle the top with balsamic vinegar, then place about 2 teaspoons of butter into the center of each onion. Season lightly with salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning.
  • Wrap each onion with one slice of thin bacon, then another slice, securing with a toothpick if needed.
  • Bring the sides of the foil up and twist the tops to seal. Place onto a hot grill or bake on a tray in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 1 hour. Carefully open the tops of the packets and return to the oven for 20 minutes to crisp up the bacon.
  • Serve as is in the packets, one per person, or use a spatula to remove onions to a serving platter, pouring the juices over the top. Enjoy!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a married cruise-only travel agent with two stepsons, aged 20 and 25. It took a while to get the boys used to my cooking, as they were raised on fast food and pre-packaged foods (i.e. mac-n-cheese from the blue box, frozen dinners, Chef Boyardee, McDonalds, etc.). My mother is from Spain and I lived there as well as Germany, England and Italy growing up, which influenced both my career and my cuisine!</p> 8726943"
