This is a great recipe to go over rice, and combine with vegetables of your choice interspersed with the red onion.
Its an easy recipe that everyone loves, even the kids.
I recommend using peppers (bell, poblanos, sweet), zucchini, squash, or even artichokes.
It only takes about 30 mins to do properly, the hardest part is grilling.
I prefer to do it over a medium flame so that it doesn’t get too charred or burn the vegetables.
