Recipe

Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 20 mins Ready Time: 50 mins


• preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.
• peel brown outer layers from an onion. using a sharp knife, cut a cone-shaped core from the top of the onion, about 2/3 of the way into the vegetable. the core should be about 1 1/2 inches wide at the top. insert a bouillon cube into the hollowed-out space, followed by an ice cube (for more moisture, if desired). top the ice cube with 1 tablespoon of butter. wrap the filled onion in a sheet of aluminum foil, leaving a small vent at the top. repeat with the rest of the onions and filling ingredients.
• set the foil-wrapped onions on the preheated grill vent-sides up, and grill until onions are tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
