Cebollas En Adobo - Sweet & Sour Onions Tapas

"These onions are cooked and marinated in a delicious,slightly sweet sauce. They go well with any sauceless tapa. We've made this for dinner parties, cocktail parties and it's always a hit. I use a bag of frozen pearl onions and it turns out wonderfully! Goes well with grilled chicken. We usually eat them warm and I don't always cook them for the full time. Makes 4 largeish servings."
