Onions, Caramelized Recipe

Slice the Onions

Peel the onions and slice them thinly into even rings or half-moons, depending on your preference.

Heat the Pan

In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.

Add the Onions

Add the sliced onions to the skillet and stir to coat them evenly with the butter and oil.

Season the Onions

Sprinkle the salt and sugar over the onions, then stir well to combine. The sugar will help with the caramelization process.

Cook Slowly

Reduce the heat to low and cook the onions slowly, stirring occasionally. This process will take about 30-40 minutes. The onions should become soft and turn a deep golden color.

Add Balsamic Vinegar

When the onions are caramelized, stir in the balsamic vinegar and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Season to Taste

Taste the caramelized onions and adjust seasoning with freshly ground black pepper and more salt if needed.
