I loved grilled scallions!
If you’re lucky enough to get garden scallions, even better!
I live ten minutes walking or two minutes driving, from the house I grew up in where my parents have a beautiful vegetable garden.
If you’ve been hanging out on my site for a while now, you’ve heard me mention all of the gorgeous fruits and vegetables from this garden before. Well, I recently grabbed a handful of gorgeous scallions and thought they’d make a delicious side dish if I grilled them. (I was right.)
How to Make Grilled Scallions
It’s so easy!
- Wash and dry the scallions.
- If they’re particularly thick, you can slice them in half, lengthwise.
- Drizzle the onions with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Grill!
That’s it!
Grilled scallions are a fabulous, quick and easy side dish, and they go well with almost anything. I love having something like this to throw on the grill as the steak or chicken is finishing up its cooking time.

- 1 dozen scallions, washed and dried
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- salt and pepper

Preheat a stove top or outdoor grill.

Cut off a couple of inches from the tops, and if any of the scallions are particularly thick, slice them in half, lengthwise.

Toss them with the olive oil on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Once the grill is very hot, add the scallions and grill each side, just long enough to mark them, about 3 minutes total.
