Whole Onion Grilled -Experiment

Wedged a whole onion and soaked with steak sauce and parmesan cheese, wrapped in foil and placed on grill for about 30 minutes. Opened it and coated with more cheese. Very flavorful.




Also made my terracotta antipasto veggie dish and some tenderloin tips. The veggie recipe follows.



“Grilled in Terracotta”
Veggie Mix
(Antipasto style)

This recipe for two is easily modified for multiples by adding extra peppers. Quick and tasty and can be used as an appetizer, salad or side dish; shown here with Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken Breasts and Baked Potatoes. Published earlier as a antipasto salad, I have modified the preparation just a little and contents due to market conditions...
