Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 4 bunches Mexican green onions double amount if using regular green onions
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce or Jugo Maggie
  • 5 limes
  • 1 teaspoon Aleppo pepper optional
  • 3 tablespoons oil

Instructions
 

  • Start by removing the tips and about 4 inches of the greens from the onions. Remember to remove any wilted pieces as well. 
  • Prepare a comal or cast-iron skillet with about 3 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add onions and allow them to develop a slight char on each side before turning and cooking on the other side. This process should take about 3 to 5 minutes per side.
  • Season onions with a drizzle of soy sauce, lime juice, salt, and Aleppo peppers if desired. Enjoy while still warm or at room temperature.

A Note from Lola

RECIPE VARIATIONS
  • Mexican onions works best for this recipe, but regular green onions and even small regular onions (quartered) will work.
