Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Slice the Onions

    Begin by peeling the onions. Slice them into thin rings or half-moons, depending on your preference. You should have about 4 cups of sliced onions.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Heat the Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.

  2. 3

    Sauté the Onions

    Add the sliced onions to the skillet and stir them to coat with the oil. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper. Cook the onions for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become soft, translucent, and slightly caramelized.

  3. 4

    Add Balsamic Vinegar

    Once the onions are cooked down, drizzle 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar over them. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the vinegar is absorbed and the onions are well-glazed.
