Grilled Onions (How to Grill Onions)
Grilled Onions (How to Grill Onions) - if you are looking for a simple, straight-forward tutorial on how to grill onions - this is it!
Ingredients
- 1 onion red, yellow or white
- ½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- kosher salt and ground black pepper
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat the grill to 450℉ and clean the grill grates. Thickly slice 1 onion (about ¾ inch thick) into circles OR cut into wedges.
- Season: Place onion on a baking sheet or large plate and drizzle with ½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil. Using hands rub the oil over all sides of the onions (carefully keeping all of the rings in tact). Sprinkle with kosher salt and ground black pepper.
- Grill: Cook on direct heat (directly over flame) for 3-4 minutes per side, or until each side is nicely charred.
- Serve: Remove from grill and enjoy immediately - we love them on a perfectly grilled cheeseburger!
Notes
- Cooking time: The longer you grill the onion, the softer it will become. If you prefer more crispy onions, definitely cook closer to the 6 minute mark. If you want softer, more charred onion then cook closer to the 8 minute mark.
- Storage: simply store grilled onions in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
