About Grilled red onions

Grilled red onions are a flavorful side dish or topping made by lightly charring slices or wedges of red onion over open heat, enhancing their natural sweetness and smokiness. Popular in Mediterranean, American, and barbecue cuisines, these onions add depth to salads, burgers, tacos, or roasted vegetable dishes. Rich in antioxidants, such as quercetin, they may support heart health and reduce inflammation. Red onions contain vitamins C and B6, fiber, and trace minerals like potassium that contribute to overall wellness. They are low in calories and fat-free, making them a healthy addition to most diets. However, when paired with heavy butter, oils, or sugary marinades, their caloric content may rise, so preparation style matters. Grilling retains their nutrients while enhancing their taste, making them both a nutritious and versatile ingredient suitable for various diets.
