Grilled Onion And Tomato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk water, vinegar, oil, sugar, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl until smooth; add cucumbers, tomatoes, and onion and stir to coat.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 2 hours.

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar, basil, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper and oil in a blender and blend until smooth. Can be made 2 hours in advance and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before using.
• Combine the corn kernels, onion and tomato in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to coat, season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature 30 minutes before serving. Top with crumbled blue cheese and garnish with basil sprigs just before serving. Salad can be made 1 day in advance and served cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Start up grill, if using charcoal, or wait until corn is ready if using a gas grill. Or preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a small saucepan over a very low flame, reduce balsamic vinegar to 1 tablespoon, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool.
• Drizzle olive oil on corn and season with sea salt and pepper. Place on grill and cook until lightly browned. (Or roast in oven for 15 minutes, turning every 5 minutes.) Remove, let cool and cut off kernels.
• Mix corn, tomatoes, scallion, parsley, red onion, and avocado. Season with reduced balsamic, olive oil, sea salt and pepper. Toss well.

Steps:

• Prepare charcoal or gas grill for direct grilling over high heat, or preheat indoor electric grill. Oil the grill rack.
• Put bell peppers, onion rounds, and tomatoes in a bowl and coat them with oil.
• Grill peppers directly over high heat, turning to char and blister them on all sides, 5-7 minutes.
• Transfer to a paper bag, close the bag, and let cool for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grill onion rounds, turning once, until grill marked and partly tender, 2-3 mins per side. Transfer to a cutting board.
• Grill tomatoes, turning often, until grill marked, 3-4 minutes. Dont overcook. Transfer to a cutting board.
• Peel peppers and cut open to remove seeds and stems. Chop peppers coarsely and mound on a platter. Coarsely chop onions; then core and chop the tomatoes and add them to the platter.
• Scatter basil leaves on top of the vegetables.
• To make vinaigrette, combine garlic and vinegar in a small bowl. Gradually whisk in olive oil. Pour dressing over vegetables and toss well.
• Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Place a small saucepan over medium heat and add the butter. When it's about half melted, throw in the garlic and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, allowing the garlic to take on a little bit of color. Remove from the heat and brush this mixture on both sides of each slice of bread.
• 2. Oil the grill racks. Preheat your grill using all burners set on high and with the lid closed for 10 to 12 minutes.
• 3. Place the bread on the grill, close the lid, and cook, turning once, until well marked. Careful here; depending on the moisture content of the bread, this could happen as quickly as 2 minutes (or about 1 minute on each side), but it usually takes about 4 minutes. Place the tomatoes on the grill, close the lid, and cook for a few minutes per side.
• 4. Remove the bread to a cutting board, cut into 3/4-inch cubes, and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the tomatoes, onion, olive oil, vinegar, herbs, salt, and pepper. Toss gently with your hands to combine. Taste and adjust the seasonings if you desire. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the corn, tomatoes, sweet onion, green onion, and cilantro. Squeeze lime juice over mixture, and mix in. Stir in rice vinegar to taste; the amount you use will depend on the sweetness of the corn, and the acidity of the lime. Season with kosher salt.
• Cover, and chill for 45 minutes to an hour. Stir before serving.
