Ingredients

  • 2 medium onions, peeled, trimmed, and halved crosswise

  • 12 whole cloves

  • 1 Tbsp light soy sauce

  • 1 Tbsp canola oil

  • 1 Tbsp molasses

  • 1 1/2 tsp balsamic vinegar

  • 1/4 tsp coarsely ground black pepper

  • 1/2 tsp granulated sugar

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 450 °F. Coat a foil-lined baking sheet with canola cooking spray. Arrange the onion halves on the baking sheet and pierce evenly with the cloves.
  • Combine the soy sauce, canola oil, molasses, vinegar and black pepper in a small jar, secure with lid and shake vigorously until completely blended. Brush 1 Tbsp of the soy mixture evenly over the onions. Bake 25 minutes, brush 1 Tbsp of the soy mixture evenly over the onions, bake 5-10 minutes or until richly browned on edges and onions are tender.
  • Remove from oven and using a flat spatula, remove the onions and place on serving platter, spoon remaining soy mixture evenly over the onions and sprinkle with the sugar and salt.
