This is a good recipe to pep up plain broilled chicken or fish.

1 small onion
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon tomatoe puree
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon wine or cider vinegar
juice of 2 citrus fruit

Thinly slice the onion.  Place up the sides of a bowl, sprinkle with
the sugar and leave for a couple of hours.

Put the onion juice (but not the onion) in a small pan with all the
other stuff.  Heat for 1 or 2 minutes, until thoroughly combined and
somewhat syrupy.

Thats all.

Notes: 1. If you're in a hurry, finely grate an onion and use it instead of 
the juice
       2. My recipe says use juice of 1 lemon plus 1 orange.  I made it 
yesterday with lime juice and it was great.
