DCook's note: Maggi seasoning is a dark brown, bottled sauce that resembles
soy sauce in looks and taste. It can be found in Hispanic markets and in
the Hispanic section of some supermarkets.
1. On an outdoor grill, fire up enough charcoal to make a single layer
under the vegetables. When coals are covered with gray ash, place chilies
directly over fire. Grill chilies, turning frequently, until their skins
are blackened. Transfer chilies to paper bag to steam until cool enough to
handle.
2. Peel chilies using rubber gloves if your skin is sensitive, and cut
chilies into 1/3-inch strips. Keep chili strips, or rajas, warm.
3. Trim any wilted portion of green from tips of onions. Rub onions with
oil and Maggi seasoning, if using.
3. Tear a piece of foil about 6 inches wide. Place it on one side of grill.
Arrange onions so that their green portions are on foil and bulbs are
directly over fire. Grill, turning frequently, until bulbs are soft and
lightly browned, 5-10 minutes. Squeeze lime juice over onions and sprinkle
salt over them, if using.
Presentation: Serve onions with rajas and grilled meat. Makes 6 servings.
