Ingredients
  

2 large red onions, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon sumac

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Juice of 1 lemon

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Onions: In a large bowl, place the thinly sliced red onions.

    Season: Add olive oil, sumac, salt, and ground black pepper to the onions. Toss well to ensure all the onion slices are evenly coated.

      Marinate: Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon over the seasoned onions. Mix again and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature. This allows the flavors to meld and the onions to soften slightly.

        Serve: After marinating, transfer the sumac onions to a serving dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a touch of color and freshness.

          Enjoy: Serve as a refreshing side dish, or use as a topping for grilled meats, sandwiches, or salads.
