Wonderful! I LOVE cooked onions and will make this often, always remembering Papa D! <br/><br/>I microwaved the four onions in one cup chicken broth for 10 minutes, then roasted the onions with part of the butter and smoked paprika in the oven for about 45 minutes ~ adding the buttered croutons the last 15 minutes. Made for Papa D's Cookathon, June 2012.

I change the cooking method, but found the flavors good. I elected to do the preccoking in the microwve so I placed the whole onions in a casserole dish, added only one cup of broth, covered, and cooked until slightly soft. I then drained the liquid before topping & baking. I used smoked paprika & added a sprionkle of parsley. Served with Recipe #427369 and Recipe #429534 for ZWT6.

I used vegetable broth instead of chicken and enjoyed thiswith dinner. I scaked the recipe down for 2 onions. Thanks! Made for 123 Hit Wonders game.

I also cut the recipe in half, and found the pungancy from the onions to be completely gone by the time the cooking process was over. Nothing was too overpowering, so I really did like the combination of flavours. Unfortunately, these did not make for good leftovers, which is fine, because there wasn't much to call leftovers.

Cut the recipe in half but made pretty much as Kerfuffle-Upon-Wincle did (precooked in the microwave). So tasty. We love onions so I knew DH would completely devour his (which he did and I should have made the full amount). Definately will make this often. Made in memory of Papa D.
