CARAMELIZED ONIONS ON THE GRILL
These are absolutely melt in your mouth delicious! You can make them on the grill or in the oven. Even friends of ours that don't care for onions loved these! I would recommend that you use 1 large onion for every 2 people. Some people want one whole onion to themselves so you might want to make some extra! They are also good heated up the next day but we rarely have any extra!

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.

- Place packet on preheated grill, and cook until the onions have softened, and cooked to a deep, rich brown, 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on the temperature of the grill. Stir the onions after the first 30 minutes, or as needed to keep from burning.

Steps:
- Heat grill to 450°F.
- Cut a piece of heavy duty foil (or two pieces if using regular foil) approximately 22 inches long.
- Place thinly sliced onion in the center of the foil and toss with onion and garlic powder, and salt and pepper. Dot the top with butter.
- Pull the long edges of the foil up, folding them onto each other to create a seal. Then fold in the short edges of the foil to create the packet, making sure all edges are sealed, and leaving enough space in the foil packet for the onions to move when you shake it.
- Place the foil packet on the grill over direct heat (but not a direct flame). You can also place it over indirect heat to reduce any risk of burning the onions. Cook for 25-30 minutes, shaking the foil packet halfway through. You can also gently open and stir the onions around halfway through.
- Gently open the foil packet, allowing the steam to escape. Stir the onions before serving and allow to cool slightly.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large deep frying pan over a low heat.
- Add the onions with a generous pinch of salt and cook slowly for 30-40 mins. Stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking or burning until they become soft and golden. If the onions start to catch, add a splash of water to the pan and mix well.
- Add the sugar and vinegar to give them a sweet, slightly sharp chutney flavour. Keep cooking on a low heat for another 5 mins, stirring occasionally until the mix is sticky, the sugar has dissolved and the vinegar has reduced. The onions are now ready to serve, or use in a recipe.

Tips:
- Choose the right onions: Yellow or white onions are best for caramelizing, as they have a higher sugar content than red onions.
- Slice the onions thinly: This will help them caramelize evenly.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pan or skillet: This will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the onions from burning.
- Cook the onions over medium-low heat: This will allow them to caramelize slowly and evenly.
- Stir the onions frequently: This will help prevent them from sticking to the pan and burning.
- Add a little bit of liquid: This will help the onions to soften and caramelize. You can use water, broth, or even wine.
- Be patient: Caramelizing onions takes time. It can take up to 45 minutes or even longer.
Conclusion:
Caramelized onions are a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. They are perfect for topping burgers, sandwiches, and pizzas. They can also be used in pasta dishes, soups, and stews. With a little patience, you can easily make caramelized onions at home.
