How to Make Caramelized Sherried Onions
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Heat until the butter stops sizzling.
- Add 2 pounds of thinly sliced yellow onions to the skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low.
- Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until the onions are deeply golden brown and caramelized, about 30-40 minutes. Be patient; this develops the best flavor!
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme leaves, 1 teaspoon of fresh rosemary leaves, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar. Stir well to combine.
- Continue cooking for another 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very tender and intensely flavorful.
- Pour in 1/2 cup of dry sherry (like Amontillado or Oloroso). Let the sherry reduce for 5-7 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off and the sauce to thicken slightly.
