Grilled Pearl Onions

Start by bringing a small pot of water to boil. Add in the pearl onions, whole and skin on, and cook for about 3 minutes. After they have cooked, remove them with a slotted spoon and place them in a bowl of ice water to cool. They can sit there until the water has cooled. This process will allow you to easily remove the skin and pop them right out of their housing.

Mix the seasonings in a small bowl.

Dump the seasoning into the bowl of onions, drizzle with a bit of olive oil and give a good stir. Let them sit and marinate until you are ready to use them.

Place the onions on a skewer. Place these on your preheated grill over medium heat and cook for about 8-12 minutes, until they have a nice color and continue to soften.

When you are ready to serve, place them on a serving plate, and drizzle a bit more olive oil over them. Serve these as a side to most any main dish. For me, I simple ate them right off the skewer, and used them the following morning in an omelet. In a nutshell, these pearl onions will not only catch attention, but they are super easy and delicious. Hope you enjoy.
