  4. Cook until you get nice grill marks and then flip them and repeat. Remove them from the grill and set aside.

  5. In a sauté pan, melt the butter and heat the olive oil. Add the onion. Season with salt and pepper and caramelize them. Set aside.

  6. To assemble, place the polenta rounds on a platter. Place equal amounts of the caramelized onions on each round. Add 1 piece of tomato and 2 olives on each one.
