🔪 Instructions
1. Roast the Onions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel onions (if using fresh pearl onions) and toss them in olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and tender.
2. Make the Parmesan Cream Sauce
While onions roast, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add the heavy cream, Parmesan, garlic powder, thyme, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Simmer gently for 5–7 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce thickens slightly.
3. Combine & Serve
Add roasted onions to the cream sauce and stir gently to coat.
Simmer everything together for 3–5 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Serve warm, garnished with parsley and extra Parmesan if desired.
🍽 Serving Suggestions
Great with roasted meats, turkey, steak, or grilled sausages.
Pairs well with mashed potatoes, rice, or fresh bread to soak up the sauce.
Serve as part of a vegetarian dinner with other roasted vegetables and grains.
