GRILLED RED ONIONS

By gaster16

Ingredients

• 12 (8”) wooden skewers
• 3 medium red or sweet onions
• 1-1/2 cups dry white wine
• 2-4 tablespoons butter or margarine melted
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Insert 4 wooden skewers (1 at a time) through each onion about 1/2” apart to create horizontal segments. Cut onions into slices between skewers. Leave skewers in place to hold onion slices together marinating and cooking. Place slices in a shallow container, add wine, cover and chill 8 hours, turning occasionally, drain. Melt butter in small sauce pan, stir in thyme and pepper. Brush onion slices with butter mixture, reserving some for basting. Grill onions, covered with grill lid over medium high heat (350 to 400 degrees) 6-10 minutes, turning and basting often with reserved butter mixture.
