- 4 tablespoons sweet Marsala wine
- 2 teaspoons capers in salt, well rinsed

Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Stud the onions with three cloves each and place them in a baking pan large enough to hold them in a single layer.
- Pour the olive oil in the pan and tuck in the thyme leaves. Sprinkle the onions with salt and pepper. Cover and bake about 45 minutes or until the onions are soft but hold their shape and are not falling apart.

question if you marinate the onion in the Marsala wine for a while before baking would the onion pick up the Marsala sweetness and flavor . also can you make these in a crock pot
