Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 onion 1/4 inch rounds
  • 1 cup Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
  • 1 drizzle olive oil
  • Greek seasoning to taste
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400F (200C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice the onions into rings with a knife or use a mandoline. Add an even layer of cheese to the baking sheet followed by the onion slices.

  • Make sure you arrange each onion right next to each other.

  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden! Let them cool for 10 minutes. Enjoy with sour cream, a cilantro lime crema, French onion dip, or my homemade tzatziki recipe!

Notes

  • Onion varieties: Sweet onions are perfect for balancing the savory Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. Feel free to use yellow onions or your favorite variety. 
  • Cheese alternatives: I used Parmigiano Reggiano, but you can use your favorite hard cheese. 
  • Special equipment: For thinly sliced onions, use a mandoline instead of a knife. 
  • Seasoning: Instead of Greek seasoning, sprinkle with Italian seasoning or your favorite blend of herbs and spices. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for an extra kick.
