Description
Rich, tangy, and immensely crave-able, this homemade Caramelized Onion Dip is the ultimate appetizer, game-day snack, or sandwich spread.
Ingredients
1 TB butter
2 TB olive oil
2 1/2 cups diced yellow onion (about 12 oz)
1 tsp kosher salt
2 cups sour cream
1 cup good-quality mayonnaise (“light” varieties not recommended)
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
2 TB fresh chopped chives
Instructions
Caramelize the onions: melt butter and oil a medium skillet over low heat; add diced onions and salt. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until onions are first transparent, then begin to turn a deep mahogany brown (this can take up to 45 minutes). Set aside to cool.
In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream, mayo, garlic salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine. Fold in the caramelized onions and chives. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve with potato chips and cut vegetables, or as a condiment for sandwiches, burgers, or baked potatoes.
