DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 400° and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice off onion stem and set onion on flat side. Cut an inch from the root down, into 12 to 16 sections, being careful not to cut all the way through. Flip over and gently pull out sections of onion to separate petals.

3. Set onion on prepared baking sheet and bake until golden and tender, 18 to 20 minutes.
4. Meanwhile make sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, paprika, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Season with salt.
5. Serve onion with Outback’s Secret Sauce.
