Directions:
Heat a gas or charcoal grill to medium-high.

Trim off and discard any wilted parts at the top of the onions. Carefully cut away the roots at the bottom of the onion, making sure the bulb stays together and the onions stay in one piece.

Generously brush the spring onions with olive oil or vegetable oil. 

Put the spring onions on the hot grill and cook them about 5-7minutes on one side, until grill marks appear. Then turn the onions once, and continue cooking until the onions feel fork tender all the way through, about 15 minutes total cooking time.

Sprinkle the grilled spring onions with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

Spritz the onions with fresh lemon juice or serve the lemon wedges on the side so everyone can dress their own plate.
