These amazing onions are marinated AND grilled! Can you imagine their awesome flavor? Yes, they are as yummy as they sound! You must make these onion slices next time you are grilling!
OMG smell them! They smell so grilled! And taste so marinated! These marinated grilled onions are mouthwatering! These onion slices are a perfect BBQ side dish along with my famous potato salad and grilled corn in husks. Everyone loves those yummy onions! Before you know it, all you have left is empty foil and all the onions are gone!
First, the onion slices are marinated in the mixture of extra-virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar and oregano, and then they are grilled on an open grill to perfection. YUM!
How do you grill onions slices without having them fall into the grill? Use foil! Just put the onion slices on top of the double sheet of foil and grill away – they won’t be going anywhere :) This recipe is similar to my grilled onions in a foil pocket, except in this version they are cooked ON TOP of the foil as opposed to inside the sealed foil pocket.
These grilled marinated onions are super easy to make and so flavorful! Red sweet onions work amazing for this recipe as well! For more unusual stuff to grill, try my grilled pita pizza – you’ll love it!

We adore onions! Those grilled onion slices look really great, Melanie.
A good recipe without the butter that’ll add an extra boost to my steaks and burgers.
The blend of olive oil, vinegar, and oregano brought out a depth of flavor that perfectly paired with the smoky grill 👌
I usually add onions directly to my pork steak, but this time I grilled them first. The result was perfect the grilled onions blended amazingly with my steak.
