Ingredients for onions: 6 Vidalia onions
1/4 cup melted butter
Salt and pepper to taste Ingredients for stuffing: 1 lb. spicy sausage
2 cups minced onions (use the centers that you scooped out)
1 apple, peeled and diced
1/3 cup chopped pecans
2 Tbs. chopped parsley
1 tsp. grated orange peel
1/4 cup white or yellow grated sharp Cheddar
1/2 cup grated sharp Cheddar Ingredients for lemon butter sauce: 1 Tbs. olive oil
1/4 cup white wine or dry vermouth
1 tsp. chopped garlic
1 tsp. chopped shallot
1 tsp. lemon zest
1 Tbs. lemon juice
1/4 cup heavy cream
6 Tbs. cold cubed unsalted butter Preparation: Cut the top off the onions and remove the outer section, being careful not to score into the onion. Scoop out the center of the onion with a small ice-cream scoop or serrated spoon. Place the onions in a baking dish, drizzle with 1/4 cup melted butter and add salt and pepper to taste. Pour water into the baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake in a 350-degree oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until the onions are tender. Brown sausage in a skillet over high heat. Add minced onions and peeled and diced apple. Stir in chopped pecans, chopped parsley, grated orange peel and grated white or yellow sharp Cheddar. After the mixture is sauteed and fully cooked, drain and use it to fill the baked onions. Sprinkle the top of the onions with remaining grated sharp Cheddar and return to the oven long enough to warm the onions and melt the cheese. To make the sauce, combine olive oil, white wine or dry vermouth, chopped garlic, chopped shallot, lemon zest and lemon juice in a saucepan and reduce until there's a syrup in the pan. Pour in heavy cream and cold cubed unsalted butter and whisk together until butter is melted. Drizzle over the baked onions and garnish each onion with a whole pecan.
