Preparation Steps
1
Peel the red onions and slice them into half-centimeter thick rings. Be careful to keep the slices intact.
2
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. This will be your marinade.
3
Gently toss the onion rings in the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them sit for 10 minutes.
4
Preheat your grill to medium heat. If using a grill grate, lightly oil it to prevent the onions from sticking.
5
Place the onion rings on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until lightly charred and caramelized.
6
During the last minute of grilling, brush the onions with BBQ sauce using a basting brush, then cook for another minute to allow the sauce to caramelize slightly.
7
Remove the onions from the grill and sprinkle with fresh rosemary before serving. Serve warm, either as a side dish or as a standalone dish.
