Roast the Onions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Place the sliced onions on a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the onions are golden and caramelized. Stir halfway through for even roasting.
