Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp honey
10 c sliced vidalia or other sweet onions (about 5 onions)
1/4 c chicken broth
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp white pepper
1/8 tsp ground mace
1/2 c heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • 1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt butter over medium heat; stir in honey. Add the onions, broth and seasonings. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, for 15-18 minutes or until onions are tender.
  • 2. Then cook, uncovered, over medium-high heat, for 15-20 minutes more, until liquid is almost evaporated, stirring occasionally. Stir in the cream and cook 3-5 minutes until sauce thickens.
  • 3. Serve and enjoy!

Tips:

  • To achieve perfectly caramelized onions, slice them thinly and cook them slowly over low heat. This will allow them to brown evenly and develop a rich, sweet flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the onions. This will prevent them from caramelizing properly and will result in steamed onions.
  • If the onions start to stick to the pan, add a splash of water or broth. This will help to deglaze the pan and prevent the onions from burning.
  • Season the onions with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or garlic powder.
  • Once the onions are caramelized, add the cream and milk. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the sauce has thickened.
  • Serve the creamy Vidalia onions as a side dish or use them as a topping for burgers, steaks, or chicken.

Conclusion:

Braised creamy Vidalia onions are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner. With their sweet and savory flavor, these onions are sure to please everyone at the table.
