Caramelized Onions

Caramelized Onions

Add a touch of sweet and savoury flavour to any dish with these caramelized onions. They’re easy to make using just four ingredients you already have in the kitchen: onions, canola oil, garlic and pepper. Use as a pizza topping or add to sandwiches, steaks, in dips or topped on crackers for a simple appetizer.

Makes

  • Ingredients
    • 2 Tbsp canola oil (30 mL)
    • 1/4 tsp pepper (1 mL)
    • 4 large onions, thinly sliced (4)
    • 2 cloves garlic, minced (2)
  • Directions
    1. In large non-stick sauté pan, heat canola oil over medium heat.
    2. Add onions and garlic. Reduce heat to medium low. Cover and cook onions and garlic for approximately 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions are softened. Remove lid and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are caramelized, about 30-35 minutes longer. Add a bit of water if the onions begin to stick to the pan.
    3. Season with pepper.
