Easy way to slice an onion

This is the easiest way I have found to slice an onion.

I always use a serrated knife like this.

 Cut off the NON root end

Like so...

Lay cut end down and slice through the root.

 Two nice halves.

 Remove the papery skin.

Proceed to slice as thick or thin as you like.

Nice slices! 

If you want to dice use a sharp paring knife

 Stack a couple of the slices on top of one another and dice as small as you like.

Slices on pizza...

 

 Dices on pizza...

This may be elementary for some but it gets the job done for me!
