• Remove from pot with a slotted spoon and cool.
• When cool enough to handle, cut off about an inch off of top of onions with a very sharp knife, and finely chop the tops.
• Trim the root end of the onions slightly, just enough so they can stand straight.
• Scoop out about a heaping tablespoon from the center of each onion (make certain to keep the inside intact) and finely chop the center, adding to the rest of the chopped onions.
• Transfer the hollowed onions to an oiled baking dish (I use an 11x7-inch for 8 onions, if you are only making 4 onions, then use an 8x8-inch).
• Set oven to 375 degrees.
• In a skillet over medium heat, saute the chopped onions for about 3 minutes in oil.
• Stir in whipping cream and remove from heat.
• Stir in the Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.
• Fill the whole onions with some of the sauted onion and Parmesan mixture, then spoon the remainder of the mixture around the onions in the baking dish.

• Bake the onions for about 40-50 minutes (depending on the size of your onions).

BAKED SRIRACHA-BROWN SUGAR GLAZED BACON-WRAPPED ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F, rack in the middle. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a cooling rack on top. Lightly spray the cooling rack.
• Place the brown sugar in a pie tin.
• Place the Sriracha in a bowl.
• Gently separate the onion rings leaving 2 rings together (you want to double up on the onions when you wrap them). For this dish you want the larger rings. The smaller, inner rings you can set aside and use in another dish.
• Take 2 strips of bacon and coat each side with brown sugar (doesn't have to be caked on but coated evenly).
• If your hands are sensitive, put on plastic gloves and using a pastry brush or rubber tipped brush, baste the Sriracha on all sides of the onion rings (leaving the 2 together).
• Starting at one end of the bacon, snuggly but gently wrap the bacon around the onion ring slightly overlapping itself. You should be able to get half way around (again, depends on how big your rings are).
• Take the second piece of bacon and place one end over top of the previous piece of bacon (where you left off) and continue wrapping until you have completely wrapped the onion ring in bacon. If you wish at this point you can skewer the bacon in place.
• Place end side down on the rack and continue wrapping the rest of the rings. For the smaller rings use 1 1/2 slices of bacon. You really don't want to overload this with bacon as you want the bacon to cook evenly.
• Once all the rings are wrapped, place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Using tongs GENTLY flip over.
• Cook for another 15-20 minutes. The last 3 minutes the rings may be broiled for a charred appearance.
• Remove from the oven and immediately plate. They will be soft so be careful but the bacon will crisp up and they will become crispy and crunchy.
• Side note: To help with cleanup, have a sink of hot soapy water ready that you can immediately put your cooling rack inches Don't let this stuff dry on the rack as it's a pain to get off. Soaking it for 15 minutes will take it off really easily.
