Spicy Glazed Sweet Onions Recipes

SWEET AND SPICY GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan on medium high.
• Mix together the hot sauce, brown sugar, paprika and cayenne in a small bowl. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the mixture to a large bowl and whisk in the mayonnaise; set aside the rest of the sauce. Add the chives, celery and onions to the bowl with the mayonnaise and toss well.
• Sprinkle the salmon with salt and pepper. Brush the grill grate lightly with oil. Lay the salmon on the grill, skin-side up, and cook until distinct grill marks appear and the salmon releases easily from the grate, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and brush the fish with some of the reserved sauce. Continue to cook the fish, brushing the pieces periodically with the sauce, until the salmon fillets are glazed and just cooked through, 13 to 15 minutes more.
• Transfer the fillets to individual plates and serve with the celery slaw.

SWEET & SPICY GLAZED BUTTERMILK MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees (F).
• Combine the glaze ingredients in a small saucepan and place over low heat.
• Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and cook until soft and translucent, don't brown. Add parsley, basil and tomato paste and cook for about a minute. Set aside to cool.
• In a small bowl, combine Panko and buttermilk, let this set for 5 - 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, place beef, pork, cheese, salt and pepper, the onion/garlic mixture and the Panko/buttermilk mixture. Mix with your hands until combined.
• In a 13x9x2 rimmed baking pan, form the mixture into a loaf center of the pan, don't touch the sides of the pan. Brush sides and top with some glaze, then bake for 75 minutes, brush on more glaze after 45 minutes. Keep the leftover glaze warm and stir occasionally.
• After baking, remove the meatloaf from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes; then slice and serve hot with leftover glaze as a sauce.

OVEN-ROASTED SWEET ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500°F.
• Place onion wedges in a single layer in a shallow baking dish.
• Sprinkle with garlic and herbs.
• Season with salt and pepper; drizzle evenly with vinegar and olive oil.
• Roast until onions are lightly caramelized and barely tender, 12 - 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let cool.
• Serve at room temperature.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH GLAZED SWEET ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Melt butter in large frying pan and add the sliced onions and sauté until softened, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in brown sugar, vinegar, raisins or apricots and salt and pepper to taste and cook until the onions are tender and glazed, about 3 minutes.
• Arrange the pork tenderloins in an oiled roasting pan just large enough to hold them comfortably.
• Spoon the glazed onions over the pork. Roast the pork until browned on the outside and just faintly pink in the center, about 45 minutes.
• An instant-read thermometer inserted into the pork should read 155-160°F.
• Transfer the pork tenderloins to a carving board, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let stand for 5 minutes.
• Slice and serve on warmed individual plates with the glazed onions.

KNOCK-YOUR-PANTS-OFF SWEET & SPICY GLAZED BUTTERMILK MEATLOAF RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Combine the glaze ingredients, ketchup, barbecue sauce and brown sugar in a small saucepan and place over low heat. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and cook until soft and translucent. Add parsley, basil, and tomato paste and cook for about a minute. Set aside to cool. In a small bowl, combine Panko and buttermilk and set aside for 5 minutes. Then in a large bowl, place beef, pork, cheese, salt and pepper, the onion mixture, and the panko mixture. Mix with your hands until just combined. On a rimmed baking pan, form the mixture into a loaf shape sitting in the center of the pan, with all four sides exposed. Brush sides and top with some glaze, then bake for about 50 minutes, removing the pan every 10 minutes or so to brush on more glaze. (At the end of baking, you will not have used all of the glaze mixture - just keep it in the saucepan on low and stir it every few minutes.) Cool for 5 minutes, slice, and serve hot with leftover glaze as sauce.
