Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°.
Cut stem off onion and place flat side down. Cut 1/2" from the root down, into 12 to 16 sections, making sure not to cut through root. Flip over and pull sections of onion out gently to separate petals.
In a medium bowl, whisk eggs with water. Dip onion into egg wash, using a spoon to coat fully if needed.
In another medium bowl, combine bread crumbs, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and salt. Dredge onion with bread crumb mixture, again using a spoon to coat fully if needed.
Bake onion until golden and tender, 18 to 20 minutes.
Make the dipping sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together mayo, ketchup, horseradish, paprika, garlic powder and oregano. Season with salt and serve.
