Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Red onions
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel and trim the ends of the red onions, then slice them into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Keep the slices intact to make grilling easier.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
Brush both sides of the onion slices generously with the balsamic marinade, saving a small amount for serving.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F). If using a grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat.
Place the onion slices on the grill or grill pan. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the onions are tender and have nice char marks.
Carefully remove the grilled onions from the heat and transfer them to a serving plate.
Drizzle the remaining balsamic marinade over the grilled onions before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish, or use as a topping for burgers, sandwiches, or salads.
