No Onion in this recipe? I love fried onions with my bifana.

Sorry Gerry, this is a traditional bifana and it does not contain onions, try this one: bifana with onions.

I'm having family over tomorrow, but I wanted to make the febras today. Would it be ok to make a day ahead and refrigerate in the pan with the marinade. Then reheat tomorrow. Just wondering what your thoughts are on this?
