Ingredients

  • 12 oz lager beer
  • ½ cup water
  • 2 cups jerk marinade
  • 2 tsps  fresh thyme leaves
  • ½  tsp  kosher salt
  • ¼  tsp  black pepper
  • 2 large yellow onions ends trimmed and sliced into ¾ inch slices horizontally

Instructions

  • Mix beer, water, and jerk marinade in small bowl and pour into a baking dish that will hold all the onions.
  • Place onions down in marinade. Marinate overnight covered in refrigerator.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Flip the onions over in the marinade, and lay on the flat bottom of each side. Using half the fresh thyme, top each onion slice with some.
  • Roast in oven for 1 hour or until golden brown, basting once or twice during roasting.
  • Change settings to "broil" and increase temperature to 450 degrees F cooking for 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat, spoon reduced sauce over and sprinkle with remaining fresh thyme. Remove from skins and serve.

Notes

  • If using small onions just slice them in half, otherwise for larger ones just slice them in thirds crossways so all of the slices roast evenly.
  • Leave the skin on as they will help keep the onions intact when cooking.
  • Keep the marinade as simple or complicated as you prefer
