PICKLED GRILLED RED ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
• Peel onions and trim root ends just slightly. Quarter the onions, keeping the layers intact with the remaining root ends. If necessary, use a toothpick to keep layers together while on the grill.
• Grill onions until slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Remove from the grill and place in a nonreactive bowl.
• Meanwhile, heat vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small non-reactive saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Pour hot liquid over the grilled onions and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove onions from liquid and refrigerate until ready to use.

GRILLED RED ONIONS WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Prepare outdoor or indoor grill.
• In a very small saucepan heat rosemary and vinegar over low heat until hot, but not boiling. Remove pan from heat and cover. Let stand for 20 minutes so that the vinegar becomes infused with the rosemary.
• In a metal measuring cup heat oil over low heat or microwave until warm. (Heating thins oil, making it easier to brush sparingly over onions.) If you are using an indoor grill, place slices on the grill. For an outdoor grill, use a grilling basket to keep onion slices from falling through. If you don't have a basket, place a soaked bamboo skewer through the rings parallel to the cuts so that they do not tumble through the grill. Brush both sides of each slice lightly with oil. Season onions with salt and pepper and grill 4 to 6 minutes on each side, or until lightly charred and softened.
• Transfer onions as grilled to a large bowl, separating rings, and toss with vinegar mixture, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve onions warm or at room temperature.
