Grilled Green Onions

Recipe #165576 | 15 min | 5 min prep | add private note

By: Kiersten Phae
Apr 24, 2006

Last summer during a BBQ, my friend put this together and threw it on our grill. Everyone loved it. I'm not an onion fan, and even I like this one. The onions get sweet from the butter, and it's so easy. Can be eaten alone or great as a garnish over burgers or potatoes. The cook time is approximate, as it can be kept warm on the grill until all the food is ready.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Wash the onions thoroughly.
  2. 2
    Place whole onions on a sheet of foil.
  3. 3
    Place the butter over the onions.
  4. 4
    Sprinkle with garlic salt and pepper.
  5. 5
    Fold the foil over the onions and seal the edges so the butter steams the onions.
  6. 6
    Place on a hot grill until warmed through, about 10 minutes.
  7. 7
    Be careful when opening, the steam will be hot.

Delicious! The tender onions get even softer and blend nicely with the butter. Like others, I used minced garlic (aprox. one clove for a smaller than usual bunch of onions) and a shake of salt, instead of the garlic salt. I baked in the oven (apartment-dweller without a grill) around 400 degrees for a few minutes (check them for tenderness, I didn't time it). I will definitely be making these again.

    I made two bunches of the green onions when we had company over for a BBQ, but by the time I hit the buffet table they were GONE! The menfolk had scarfed them all down and were proclaiming them magnificent! I followed directions exactly and cannot wait to make them again at our Labor Day cookout (the hubby said he will by the onions himself if need be to get these again!) where I shall make SURE I get the first serving!

    Absolutely lovely! I have been using your recipe for the past year now so it is about time I rate it. Perfect compliment to a BBQ dinner, preferably steak for me. I have also done these in the oven with perfect results. I have been tending to use garlic powder and sea salt. They really add a special touch to a meal. Simple, delicious and I am grilling them again tonight!

    This recipe went over very, very well. I would make some changes though. Next time, I will cook up a bunch onions per person (they were that good)...I never have garlic salt, so use garlic powder and a good shaking of salt...half the seasonings and butter. It did not appeal to me to see all that butter floating around. On the whole, a very good recipe.
