Caramelized Onion on Your Indoor Grill

"I only recently discovered caramelized onions and discovered this technique by mistake when I was grilling chicken and some vegetables one day on my counter top George Foreman. I realized the onions started to look and smell just like caramelized onions made on the stove top. I have started making my onions this way since then. I love to use it in sandwiches. I usually make one serving for myself, which is how I wrote the recipe. Just up the amount of servings if you wish."

directions

  • 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.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm 23 years old and I live in Trinidad. One of the islands in the Caribbean. I love baking and have a major sweet tooth but I am trying to cook more savoury foods and I am enjoying trying new recipes. Recently I have come to love photographing the food I make. Too bad they don't all come out photo worthy, but at least they still taste good! lol <img src=http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/BANNERS/SuperBowlSTKR.jpg> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/BANNERS/TeaSuppers-STKR.jpg">
