  5. Stir in 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
  6. Pour 1 cup of beef broth (or chicken/vegetable bouillon for a lighter flavor) into the skillet.
  7. Bring to a simmer, then cover the skillet and transfer to the preheated oven.
  8. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the onions are deeply caramelized and tender. Stir halfway through.
