Albanian Grilled Green Onions with Lemon Dressing
Introduction
Bring the flavors of Albania to your backyard with this simple yet delicious grilled green onions recipe. Cooking on the Arteflame grill ensures perfectly charred and tender green onions, enhanced with a bright lemon dressing. The unique flat-top griddle allows the green onions to cook evenly, developing a sweet and smoky flavor without burning. Whether as a side dish or a light appetizer, this dish captures the essence of Mediterranean grilling.
Ingredients
1 bunch green onions, trimmed
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp honey
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
The Sear Makes the Steak, And Arteflame Makes the Sear
Why settle for low-temperature searing when you can achieve steakhouse-quality results with an Arteflame? Gas grills take longer, drying out your steak, while the Arteflame sears at 1000°F in just one minute, locking in juices for perfection.
Pour some vegetable oil on three paper napkins and place them in the grill.
Stack firewood over the oiled napkins and light them.
Allow the grill to heat up for about 20 minutes until the flat-top reaches the ideal grilling temperature.
Step 2: Prepare the Green Onions
Trim the roots and any wilted tips from the green onions.
Toss them with melted butter, sea salt, and black pepper.
Step 3: Grill the Green Onions
Place the green onions on the flat-top griddle near the center for higher heat.
Grill for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are slightly charred and softened.
Move them to a slightly cooler section to finish cooking without burning.
Step 4: Make the Lemon Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, honey, and red pepper flakes.
Drizzle over the grilled green onions while they are still warm.
Step 5: Serve and Garnish
Transfer the green onions to a serving platter.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Tips
Use fresh, young green onions for a sweeter flavor.
Adjust grilling zones on the Arteflame to find the perfect heat for charring without burning.
Serve at room temperature for a more mellow taste.
Variations
Garlic Butter Version: Add minced garlic to the melted butter for extra flavor.
Balsamic Glaze: Drizzle a balsamic reduction instead of lemon dressing for a richer taste.
Spicy Kick: Increase red pepper flakes and add a pinch of smoked paprika.
Mediterranean Twist: Top with crumbled feta and chopped olives.
Citrus Blend: Use a mix of lemon and orange juice for a slightly sweeter dressing.
