Finely Chopped White Onion

	White onion, or yellow onion, or red onion is perfect for this recipe. White onions are called storage onions for their ability to last months after harvesting without going bad. Store white onions in their original papery skins, uncut, at room temperature in an open container such as a bowl for several months. Once cut, the onion needs to be stored, wrapped loosely in plastic in the produce section of your refrigerator.

Maintaining your Grill

	Maintaining and cleaning your grill after each use will not only provide a faster start up when you grill next, but will avoid any food safety concerns and prolong the life of your grill. Burn and brush off any food debris while the grill is still warm. This is the easiest time to accomplish this task. The grate should be scrubbed in order to keep it safe from possible food contamination.
