    METHOD

    In a saucepan, combine all of the marinade ingredients and bring to a boil. Cook for 5 minutes on low heat.

    Thread the onions onto metal skewers after cutting them into 1 cm thick slices.

    Pour the boiling marinade over the skewers and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

    Sear the onion skewers for 4 to 5 minutes on each side over direct heat, then finish cooking them over indirect heat with the lid closed for another 8 to 10 minutes. Baste frequently with the remaining marinade.

    Serve alongside the pomegranate tabbouleh and hummus.
    RECIPE NOTES

    Spanish onions with a mild flavour are ideal for our BBQ onion skewers. Grilled red onions are also delicious.
