Creamy, Cheesy, Oniony Heaven

I LOVE cheese. I personally feel as though cheese can amplify nearly any dish. This dish is one of them. With each bite, you'll delight your palette with sweetness from the soft onions, saltiness from the delicious cheese, creaminess from from the sauce, and a touch of crunch from the cheesy crust.

Onion Gratin

2 Large Yellow Onions (peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch slices)
1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil or Butter
Salt and Pepper, to taste
1 Tbsp Fresh Thyme, chopped, or 1/2 Tbsp. Dried Thyme
1 C Heavy Cream
1/4 C. White Wine or Chicken Stock
1/4 C. Parmigiano Reggiano or Gruyere, or combo of both

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spread the onions into baking dish, keeping the rings intact. Drizzle them with olive oil/butter and season with salt, pepper and thyme. Bake the onions for 15 minutes. While the onions are baking, heat cream and wine/stock in a small saucepan until the mixture bubbles around the edges. Pour the cream mixture over the onions. Cover the baking dish with lid or foil and bake another 35 minutes. Remove the lid/foil, sprinkle the top of the onions with cheese. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees and bake until golden brown.
