Roasted Bone Marrow with Pickled Red Onions and Black Garlic and Blood Orange Chimichurri
This appetizer’s richness is cut with bright and acidic condiments including quick pickled red onions and a sweet and tart herbal black garlic and blood orange chimichurri. I like to scoop the marrow onto lightly toasted black cocoa bread.

Ingredients
Pickled Red Onions
- 1/4 red onion sliced thin
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons water
- pinch salt
- stevia glycerite to taste
Marrow
- 2 pounds beef marrow bones cut lengthwise or crosswise to 2-inch pieces (ask your butcher to do this for you – many stores will also sell bones for dogs that are pre-cut)
Black Garlic and Blood Orange Chimichurri
- 1/2 cup cilantro
- 1/2 cup parsley
- 2 cloves black garlic
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons blood orange juice
- zest of 1 blood orange
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional, omit for nightshade-free
- salt to taste
- 1/4-1/2 cup olive oil
Instructions
For the Pickled Red Onions
- Bring the vinegar, water, salt, and sweetener to a boil in a small pot (or microwave in a glass bowl). Transfer to a glass bowl and add the red onions, stirring to coat completely. Let sit for 30 minutes while you prepare everything else.
For the Bone Marrow
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place marrow bones, marrow side up (if sliced in half), on a foil lined tray. Bake until the bones are lightly golden, about 20 minutes (some fat will leak out but most should stay in the bone).
For the Chimichurri
- Mince the cilantro, parsley, and black garlic together on a cutting board and then transfer to a bowl. Add the vinegar, orange juice, zest, pepper, and salt. Stir to combine and then whisk in the oil until loose. Start with 1/4 cup and add more if needed. Adjust seasoning to taste.
To Serve
- Sprinkle the bone marrow with salt and pepper and serve with pickled onion and chimichurri.
