Description
Delicious caramelized onions perfect as a topping or side dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 medium yellow onions (sliced, about 3 cups)
- 1 tbsp salted butter
- 1/4 tsp fine sea salt (plus additional to taste)
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Peel the onions and slice them into thin, even slices (about ¼ inch thick).
- Place a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt completely.
- Spread the onions out evenly in the bottom of the pan.
- Cook the onions uncovered over medium-low heat, stirring every 3-4 minutes (I recommend using a timer), for 30-40 minutes until soft and deeply caramelized.*If the onions seem to be browning too quickly between stirs, turn the heat down a bit.
