Chef’s Best Onion Dish
Ingredients:
- 4 large onions
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Prepare the Onions: Peel the onions and cut them into thin rings, separating them into “lids” or individual rings. This will help create a beautiful caramelized texture.
- Sauté the Onions: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion rings and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and turn golden brown, about 15 minutes.
- Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Deglaze and Flavor: Pour in the vegetable broth, balsamic vinegar, and add the brown sugar. Stir well to combine. The mixture will start to simmer.
- Season and Simmer: Add the dried thyme and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the onions are deeply caramelized and the liquid has reduced to a thick sauce.
- Finish and Serve: Adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve this dish as a topping for burgers or sandwiches.
- Use it as a side for roasted meats or grilled vegetables.
- Enjoy it as a flavorful addition to grain bowls or salads.
