Ingredients

  2. 30 mL (2 tbsp.) white wine
  3. 15 mL (1 tbsp.) olive oil
  4. 1 garlic clove, finely chopped

Directions

  1. Soak 4 wooden skewers in water for 1 hour.

  3. Place brochettes on pre-oiled lower barbecue grill. Cook for 5 minutes per side or until onions are done and lightly browned. Turn off barbecue. Place brochettes on upper barbecue grill.
  4. Sprinkle cheese and chives evenly over brochettes and let stand covered for 5 minutes or until cheese has melted. Serve with fish, chicken or grilled meat.

Variation: Replace the white wine with red wine and chives with fresh thyme. You can substitute the onions with other varieties, such as yellow, white or Spanish onions.
