Caramelized Onion Dip
Caramelized onion dip is one of those appetizers that will go fast! This recipe is very easy to make. It does require some time for the onions to caramelize, but it's well worth it.
Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons butter
- olive oil (drizzle)
- 3 medium sized onions
- 1 Tablespoon Marsala wine (or dry white wine)
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 1½ cups sour cream
- ½ teaspoon soy sauce (or Worcestershire)
- kosher salt
- pepper
- chopped chives or parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Cut the ends off the onions and then cut them in half. Then cut into thin slices.
- Add butter and olive oil to a non-stick skillet on medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the sliced onions.
- After about 10 minutes, once the onions have softened, add the Marsala wine and white sugar. Lower the heat and simmer for about an hour or until the onions have reduced significantly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and soy sauce. Add salt and pepper to season (about ¼-½ a teaspoon).
- Allow the onions to cool on a cutting board, then chop into smaller pieces. Add to the cream cheese mixture and gently combine. Transfer the caramelized onion dip to a serving bowl and garnish with chives or chopped parsley.
