Ingredients

15 small baby onions (peeled and stem intact)
5 -6 wooden skewers
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon French's mustard (can use honey mustard)
2 tablespoons liquid honey
2 teaspoons salt (or use white salt, or to taste)
1 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
1 pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

In a large glass bowl, mix/whisk all the marinade together until well combined (or process in a processor).
Pour the marinade in a large resealable plastic bag.
Add in the peeled onions.
Seal bag and marinade at room temperature for about 1 hour (turning the bag occasionally to coat the onions in marinade).
Meanwhile soak the wooden skewers in cool water while the onions are marinating.
Preheat grill to 400°F.
Remove the onions from marinade and thread about 3-4 onions per skewer (depending on the size of your onions).
Place the onions on the grill and turn every minute to prevent them from burning (cook the onions for about 5-7 minutes).

GRILLED SWEET ONIONS

Grilled Sweet Onions image

These onions are so delicious, we prepare them all year long-on the grill in summer, or in an oven preheated to 350° for the same amount of time in winter. A small salad, a slice of bread, these grilled onions, and you've got a great light meal. -Mary Bilke, Eagle River, Wisconsin
