Caramelized Onions On The Grill Food

CARAMELIZED ONIONS ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.
• Place the onion wedges on a sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil. Dot with butter, then sprinkle with bouillon, garlic salt, and pepper to taste. Fold the aluminum foil into a packet, leaving only a small hole at the top to allow steam to escape.
• Place packet on preheated grill, and cook until the onions have softened, and cooked to a deep, rich brown, 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on the temperature of the grill. Stir the onions after the first 30 minutes, or as needed to keep from burning.

GRILLED CHEESE WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat the canola oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. When the butter is melted, add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until dark brown and caramelized, about 25 minutes. Add the vinegar, sugar and 2 tablespoons water, scrapping up any dark bits that have accumulated on the bottom of the pan. Continue to cook until all the liquid has evaporated. Transfer the onions to a bowl and reserve.
• Butter 1 side of each bread slice. Lay 6 slices butter-side down on a work surface. Top each with 2 slices of Gruyere, a dollop of the onions and 2 more slices of Gruyere. Top with another slice of bread, butter-side up.
• Heat a cast-iron griddle over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook until the cheese begins to melt and the bread is golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until golden brown and the cheese is melted through, 2 to 4 minutes. Cut in half and serve immediately.

CARAMELIZED ONION GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• MELT ½ of the butter over medium heat in a skillet that is large enough to fit the bread. Assemble the sandwich by layering the caramelized onions, followed by the cheese (slightly overlapping), and topping it with the second slice of bread.
• PLACE the sandwich in the melted butter and place a clean, heavy object on top of it to press the bread down. Allow the sandwich to toast on one side on medium-low heat for about five minutes, or until the bread is golden brown.
• FLIP the sandwich and add the rest of the butter to the pan. At this point you probably won't need to put the heavy object on top. But, if the sandwich is not compact enough go ahead and do so. Toast until the bread is golden brown, about five more minutes, serve.

CARAMELIZED ONION ON YOUR INDOOR GRILL

Steps:

• Plug in your George Foreman and let it heat up.
• In the meantime prep your onions - slice them, toss them in a bowl with the oil, salt and pepper to your taste and brown sugar (again, to your taste if you wish.).
• Note: I find the sugar makes them brown faster.
• When the grill is hot enough, use a pair of tongs and place all the onion rings on the grill.
• Let it grill on one side for about a minute and then start "stirring it" with the pair of tongs.
• You don't need to constantly do so at the beginning, you can leave it to sit for 30 second intervals. After about 5 minutes you want to pay full attention to it though.
• After 10 minutes on the grill it should be soft and caramelized. But if you want it even more so, grill for 5 more minutes, stirring all the time with the tongs.
• Take off grill and serve as desired.

CARAMELIZED ONION GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with the thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are browned and tender, about 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of the Dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon water to coat the onions. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Heat a griddle over medium heat.
• Buzz the Cheddar, Gruyere, Robiola, prosecco, parsley, garlic and remaining 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard in a food processor until combined but still chunky and spreadable. Evenly spread the cheese mixture over one side of each slice of bread. Top 2 slices with the onion mixture and then sandwich the onions with the other 2 slices, cheese-side in. Spread the remaining butter on the outside of each sandwich and season with salt and pepper. Griddle the sandwiches over medium heat until golden brown on the first side, about 5 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until the cheese is melted and the exteriors are crispy, about 5 minutes more.

FLAVORED CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat.
• Add the onions and reduce the heat to medium-low.
• Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized, about 30 minutes.
• Add the thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper, and brown sugar; stir well to combine.
• Cook for 5 more minutes.

CARAMELIZED ONIONS FOR THE GRILL OR OVEN

Steps:

• Set outdoor grill to medium.
• Place the onion wedges on a large square of heavy-duty foil.
• Dot the top of the wedges with butter cubes, then sprinkle with bouillon powder, garlic powder, salt and ground black pepper.
• Fold the foil square into a packet.
• prick a small hole in the top of the packet to allow heat to escape.
• Place the packet (hole-side facing up) on the preheated grill.
• Cook for about 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the onions are a deep golden brown (shake the packet or open and stir the onions about halfway through to prevent burning).
• For oven baking; place the sealed foil packets on a small jelly-roll sheet.
• Bake 375 degrees F for about 45-50 minutes.

GRILLED RIBEYE STEAKS WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Pat the steak dry thoroughly with paper toweling. Cover with plastic wrap and rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Liberally salt and pepper both sides of the steak right before grilling.
• Meanwhile, prepare your charcoal grill. Light the coals using a chimney starter. When the coals are thoroughly ashed over, dump them into the kettle of your grill on one side for indirect heating. Place the grate on top and clean well.
• Place the steak directly over the hot coals. Grill for 1-3 minutes, until the steak develops a nice sear. Flip and repeat on the other side.
• Move the steak to the indirect side of the grill (but still close to the coals). Grill, flipping once, until done to your liking (see Recipe Notes #3-4).
• When the steak is approximately 5 minutes away from being done, heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat on the stovetop. When the skillet is hot, reduce the heat to medium-high and add the butter. When the butter is melted, tilt the pan to spread the butter and olive oil all around the skillet. Add the onions and mushrooms. Saute, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are softening and turning a light, golden-brown color.
• Remove the steak from the grill when it reaches your desired doneness. Rest for a minimum of 10 minutes. Slice the steak against its grain and serve with the mushrooms and onions.

GRILLED BRATWURST WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Combine the hard cider, 1 cup of the broth and the bratwurst in a large saucepan, bring to a simmer and gently simmer over low heat for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1/2 cup broth and simmer until the onions are browned and completely soft, about 5 minutes more. Keep the onion mixture warm while you cook the bratwurst.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Transfer the bratwurst to the grill or grill pan and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, about 10 minutes. Lightly grill the pretzel rolls, cut-side down. Serve the bratwurst topped with the onions and with the pretzel rolls and mustard on the side.

INSTANT POT CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Set a 6-quart Instant Pot® to high saute (see Cook's Note). Add the butter and olive oil to the pot. Once the butter has melted completely, add the onions, thyme, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and several grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the onions start to sizzle and the mixture is thoroughly combined, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 4 minutes. After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete (this should take about 2 minutes). Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid, then stir in the balsamic vinegar. At this point, the onions should be tender and blonde in color.
• Set the pot back to high saute and cook, stirring frequently and scraping any brown bits from the bottom and sides of the pot, until almost all the liquid has evaporated and the onions are a deep golden brown and saucy, about 30 minutes. Be sure to stir the onions frequently and watch them closely; you want to scrape the brown bits from the pot before they turn too dark and burn. Remove the thyme stems; taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
