Crockpot Caramelized Onions Recipe


Crockpot Caramelized Onions Recipe
I love caramelized onions! We use them to top steak, burgers, chicken, put them in soups, stews, sauces & casseroules. The only problem is, you're stuck watching the stove for 45 minutes. There are quick fix recipes, but most involve adding sugar... More

Ingredients
  • 3 Lbs mixed onions, I use yellow, red & cippolini.
  • 2T or so olive oil
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Directions
  1. Peel and slice onions faily thick to make rings (I make them about 5mm thick)
  2. Separate the rings a bit and add to crockpot. Top with olive oil and toss to coat.
  3. Cook on low for about 3 1/2 hours, if possible stir once an hour.
  4. Test for seasoning and add salt & pepper as necessary. Some people like to add a little acid at this point (lemon juice or vinegar) to balance the flavours, but I usually don't because I prefer to doctor them at the time of use.
  5. Continue to cook uncovered for the last half hour to let any liquids evaporate. The onions should have a rich golden colour and silky texture.
  6. Cool, then store in a sealed container. Enjoy!

We use a lot of caramalized onions in our cooking as well. Great steak and burger toppers, I totally agree with you on that front. Love the fact you found a way to slow cook these without all the fuss over a hot stovetop. Great post. You have my 5.
