Creating the Viral Onion Boil is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Onions: Peel the onions and cut them in half from top to bottom.
2. Sauté the Garlic: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Add Broth and Onions: Pour in the vegetable broth and bring it to a simmer. Add the halved onions to the pot, cut side down.
4. Season the Broth: Stir in the soy sauce, smoked paprika, ground cumin, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
5. Boil the Onions: Cover the pot and let the onions boil for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and cooked through.
6. Check for Doneness: Use a fork to check if the onions are soft. If they are not yet tender, simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes.
7. Remove and Serve: Once cooked, remove the onions from the pot and place them on a serving platter. Drizzle with some of the broth from the pot.
8. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle fresh parsley over the onions for a pop of color and added flavor.
