2 large sweet onions, sliced into rings

1. Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Dish:
Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) and lightly grease a 9ร13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray. Slice 2 large sweet onions
into thick rings and separate them. Sweet onions like Vidalia work best for this dish because they become tender and caramelized as they bake. Spread the onion rings evenly in the prepared baking dish.
2. Layer the Cheeses:
In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of shredded Swiss cheese and 1/2 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese
. These cheeses will melt beautifully over the onions, creating a rich, bubbly top layer. Sprinkle the cheese mixture evenly over the onion rings, making sure to cover the onions completely for a perfectly cheesy, golden finish.
3. Add the Seasoning:
In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup of melted butter , 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
, and season with salt and pepper to taste
. Drizzle the seasoned butter mixture evenly over the onions and cheese, ensuring that the onions are coated in the rich, buttery seasoning. The garlic and thyme will infuse the dish with deep, savory flavors.
4. Bake the Tennessee Onions:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes , or until the onions are tender, and the cheese is melted, golden, and bubbly. The onions will soften and caramelize, while the cheese will form a gooey, slightly crispy top. Keep an eye on the dish during the last few minutes of baking to ensure the cheese doesnโt over-brown.
5. Garnish and Serve:
Once the Tennessee Onions are baked to perfection, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Serve this cheesy, savory dish as a comforting side to your favorite Southern meals, or enjoy it on its own as a flavorful snack. This dish is sure to impress with its creamy, cheesy goodness!
