Grilled Cheesy Onion Soup
What you need:

  • 4 slices provolone cheese
  • 4 cubes beef bouillon
  • 4 tbsps. dry sherry
  • 4 tbsps. butter
  • 12 ice cubes

Leaving the base intact, cut the top about half an inch into the onion in a cross hatch pattern. Place the onion on a large square of heavy duty aluminum foil, top with 1 tbsp. butter then a bouillon cube. Fold the foil to make a packet. When almost closed, spoon 1 tbsp. of sherry and place 3 ice cubes on top of the onion. Seal completely. Do this for all remaining onions. Cook on a pre-heated grill over medium-high heat for 40-45 minutes or until onion is tender. Open each foil carefully, top with a slice of provolone cheese then cook on a covered grill for 1-2 minutes until cheese has melted. Transfer onion and stock from the packet into a serving bowl.

Combine tomato puree, dried basil, red pepper flakes, sugar and pepper in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, about 10 minutes. Stir constantly.
