Caramelized Onions
Directions
- 1Add water to the sliced onions in a skillet.
- 2Crank up the heat to bring the water to a boil.
- 3Once the water boils, pop a lid on the skillet to trap the steam and allow the onions to wilt and cook for about 10 minutes.
- 4After 10 minutes, ditch the lid to allow the water to evaporate, cooking the onions and causing them to exude their juices.
- 5Turn the heat down to medium-high to prevent scorching.
