Onions can be a startling delight when they\u2019re served as the main event. Here, a hot sear produces a glorious collection of complex flavors, and the gentle roast that follows renders the onions fully spoonable, soft like butter on a hot day. If you\u2019re looking for proof that onions can be more than just background players, this is it. Sweet paprika balances the richness of the dish, lending its vibrant red hue and a fruity, mild heat. To better appreciate every nuance of the onions, serve this simply\u2014a side of buttered egg noodles or rice will do nicely.<\/p>\n

6<\/p>\n

\u00bc<\/p>\n

\u00bc<\/p>\n

cup extra-virgin olive oil<\/div>\n

3<\/p>\n

Tbsp. paprika (preferably Burlap & Barrel Noble Sweet)<\/div>\n

1<\/p>\n

Tbsp. vegetable or beef bouillon paste (such as Better Than Boullion)<\/div>\n

2<\/p>\n

tsp. apple cider vinegar<\/div>\n

2<\/p>\n

tsp. sugar<\/div>\n

2<\/p>\n

tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1\u00bc tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more<\/div>\n

2<\/p>\n

Tbsp. (or more) vegetable oil<\/div>\n

2<\/p>\n

Dill sprigs and parsley leaves with tender stems (for serving)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Preparation<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. \n

    Step 1<\/h4>\n

    Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 375\u00b0. Mix 6 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped<\/strong>, \u00bc cup double-concentrated tomato paste<\/strong>, \u00bc cup extra-virgin olive oil<\/strong>, 3 Tbsp. paprika<\/strong>, 1 Tbsp. vegetable or beef bouillon paste<\/strong>, 2 tsp. apple cider vinegar<\/strong>, 2 tsp. sugar<\/strong>, and 2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1\u00bc tsp. Morton kosher salt<\/strong>, and \u00be cup water in a small bowl to combine; set garlic mixture aside.<\/p>\n

    Step 2<\/h4>\n

    Heat 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil<\/strong> in a medium cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Working in batches if needed and adding up to 1 Tbsp. more vegetable oil to pan if it looks dry at any point, arrange 2 lb. mixed onions (about 6 small), roots trimmed with ends left intact, peeled, quartered through root ends<\/strong>, cut side down, in pan with tongs (be careful and stand back; the oil will spatter) and season lightly with salt. Cook until charred underneath, about 5 minutes. If working in batches, transfer onions to a plate as you go (be gentle here; you want them to hold their shape).<\/p>\n

    Step 3<\/h4>\n

    Return all onions to pan if you cooked them in batches and arrange so cut sides are facing up. Add reserved garlic mixture and shake pan gently to settle sauce. Bake in oven until onions are very tender and oil begins to separate from tomato paste, 30\u201340 minutes. Scatter dill sprigs<\/strong> and parsley leaves with tender stems<\/strong> over onions to serve.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
