Top cream cheese or smear on toasted French bread for an appetizer. Add to a pizza, burger, hot dog, grilled cheese or just about any dip, soup, stew or casserole that calls for onions … the possibilities are endless.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 large sweet onions, peeled and cut in half then thinly sliced
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon water
Instructions
Place the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When the butter has melted, add the onions and stir to coat. Allow the onions to cook for 10 minutes, then give them a good stir with a spatula and add the salt and water.
Allow to cook 20 minutes undisturbed, then stir and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook another 30 minutes, only stirring once halfway through. When the onions are deep golden-brown, turn off the heat and allow them to cool before using. Refrigerate or freeze leftovers.
