Is there anything better than caramelized onions? Liv and I eat them straight out of the pan, but they are so, so good on other things too. Burgers, meatloaf, chicken, a spoon….. Your options are unlimited. You only need two ingredients. Here’s how I make mine.
Salted or unsalted butter and onions. I always have sweet onions on hand because they are my favorite. I use two tablespoons of butter per onion. Melt the butter in your pan and put your sliced onions in on top, after the butter has started to very, very slightly brown on medium heat. Add salt and pepper. (I never count salt and pepper as ingredients, because I don’t know anyone who doesn’t have it on hand) Stir every few minutes and in under a half an hour you go from this:
To this:
Happiness on a plate. Or a spoon. They are so, so delicious!

I’m an onion fan and these look delicious! I usually saute my onions i olive oil but I’m going to try butter next time. Thanks!
We’ve been having caramelized onions a lot lately. Yummm. Have you tried substituting caramelized onions for tomato sauce on pizza?
Oh wow, no. But that sounds amazing!
