Quick and Impressive: Microwaving Onions to Wow Your Guests

1. Prepare Your Onion: Peel the onion and slice it into even pieces, whether rings, half-moons, or chunks, depending on your preference and how you plan to use them.
2. Microwave Magic: Place the onion pieces in a microwave-safe dish. Cover the dish with a lid or microwave-safe wrap. This step is crucial as it helps steam the onions, making them tender and juicy.
3. Cooking Time: Set your microwave on high and cook the onions for about 2 minutes. This time might vary slightly depending on your microwave’s power and the quantity of onions.

After two minutes, carefully remove the dish from the microwave (the steam can be hot!) and unveil perfectly cooked onions.
