Caramelized Onions





Yields
Makes about 3/4 cup

Notes: To double this recipe, use a larger pan and allow 10 to 15 extra minutes of cooking time. If making up to 3 days ahead, let caramelized onions cool, then chill airtight.

 1 1/2 pounds onions, peeled, halved, and thinly slivered
 1 teaspoon minced garlic
 1 teaspoon olive oil
  Salt and pepper
Step 1
1

In a 3- to 4-quart pan over medium-high heat, frequently stir onions and garlic in oil until onions start to become limp; reduce heat to medium-low and stir frequently until onions are very soft and browned, 40 to 45 minutes. If onions start to stick to the pan, reduce heat further and stir in 2 tablespoons water. Add salt and pepper to taste.
