GRILLED SWEET ONIONS

Steps:

• Prepare grill for indirect heat. Peel onions, leaving root ends intact. Cut a thin slice from the top of each, then carefully cut a 1-in. hole in the center. Cut each onion into quarters, cutting to within 1/2 in. of bottom. Place each onion on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 12 in. square)., Sprinkle bouillon, thyme, salt and pepper into centers; top with butter. If desired, drizzle with wine. Fold foil around onions, sealing tightly., Grill onions, covered, over indirect medium heat until tender, 35-40 minutes. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape.

PARMESAN FRIED ONION

Steps:

• Fill a large pot or Dutch oven with enough oil to submerge the onion, with space around the sides for it to "bloom." (You might need up to a gallon, depending on the size of your onion, but don't worry; you can strain the oil and use it again for frying, so it won't go to waste.) Preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Combine the milk, eggs, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper in a medium bowl. Whisk to combine.
• Combine the flour, Parmesan, paprika, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper in a large bowl. Toss with a fork to combine.
• Cut off the top of the onion and place cut-side down. Think of the onion as the face of a clock, and cut slits at noon, 3, 6 and 9, cutting almost but not quite to the center of the onion. You'll now have 4 quadrants. Cut 3 more slits in each quadrant, once again cutting almost but not quite to the center of the onion. Flip the onion and gently separate the "petals" with your fingers.
• Put the onion in the flour mixture and sprinkle it over and around to coat, gently separating the petals as needed to completely coat it.
• Put the onion in the egg wash and coat evenly in the egg, opening the petals again as needed. Let the excess egg wash drip back in the bowl.
• Put the onion in the flour once more and sprinkle it over and around to coat, making sure to keep the petals as separate as you can.
• Use a large spider to lower the onion, cut-side up, into the hot oil. The temperature of the oil will immediately begin to drop. Adjust the heat so the oil stays around 350 to 360 degrees F for the remainder of frying. With a fork, separate the petals a bit more, if needed. Fry the onion until the tips are golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Use the spider to gently flip the onion and continue to fry until the entire onion is crisp, deep golden and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes more. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Transfer the onion while still hot to a serving plate. Season with salt and pepper. Shower with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan. Serve with mayo for dunking.

GRILLED ONION BLOSSOM

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
• Peel the onion. Slice into 6 to 8 wedges, leaving the base of the onion intact. Pull apart wedges slightly, and place butter, garlic salt and ground black pepper inside onion.
• Wrap onion tightly with aluminum foil. Place on the preheated grill. Cook 45 minutes, or until the onion is translucent and lightly browned.

GRILLED MARINATED LAMB CHOPS WITH CREAMY PARMESAN ONIONS

Steps:

• Lamb Chops and Marinade -- Mix the olive oil, lemon juice, tomatoes, rosemary, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper in a large baggie and shake and mix well. Add the lamb chops and let marinade all night and the next day. At least 8 hours. Then remove from the refrigerator and set on the counter to bring to room temp before grilling. Now we can make the onions.
• Onions -- Bring a large pot of salted water (just enough to cover the onions) up to boil and add the onions. Boil for 8-10 minutes until tender. Make sure to reserve 1/4 of the liquid for the sauce then drain the onions.
• Cream sauce -- In a small pot, add the butter and melt, then stir in the garlic and cook just a minute. Add in flour and cook one more minute. Don't let the flour brown. Add in the onion water and then the milk slowly and whisk as you go over medium heat. Season with the nutmeg, salt and pepper and slowly bring up to a medium boil until the sauce thickens.
• Bake -- In a 8x8" baking dish, spray with Pam or a non sick spray and add the onions. Top with the sauce and then the parmesan cheese. Bake in a 375 degree oven for about 20-30 minutes uncovered until lightly brown on the top.
• Sauce -- In a small sauce pan, add the veal or beef stock, white wine and tomato paste and cook on medium low heat until it reduces by about half. Just let it simmer as the potatoes cook and you grill the lamb.
• Grilling -- As the onions bake, heat up your outside grill, or grill pan. You could also use a cast iron skillet or a stainless pan. First remove some of the marinade from the chops. I just use a flat knife to scrape off the extra marinade, then discard the marinade. We won't be using that. I add just a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan or grill. The lamb chops don't take long about 3-4 minutes per side for medium rare. I remove at 140 and then let set covered 5-7 minutes for perfectly medium rare chops.
• Plating -- Just add some of the creamy onions on your plate and top with a couple of the grilled chops and then drizzle just a couple of teaspoons of the beef, wine and tomato sauce over the chops.
• Add a nice salad or a green vegetable and that is a 5 star menu.

GRILLED ONIONS AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Stir mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, garlic, red pepper flakes, paprika, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Add potatoes and onion; stir to coat completely.
• Arrange aluminum foil squares on a work surface and spray each with cooking spray. Divide potato mixture between the four squares. Fold aluminum foil over potato mixture and crimp edges together to form a secure pouch.
• Cook on the preheated grill until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.
