Caramelized Sherried Onions

Submitted by Rita1652

"This is a kicked up version of my Recipe #51649. Garnish a steak or just top a good slice of bread as my DD would do. Top those burgers for the super bowl games. I do love caramelized onions but this is really good with the added sherry gives it a creaminess. This makes a great start to onions soup!"

YUM! Rita, I love these caramelized onions. The sherry really makes the dish. I used fresh thyme and rosemary from my garden and followed your recipe to a 'T'. Everything just marries together. I will definitely add these to my rotation. Made and devoured for ZWT5, for Hell's Kitchen Angels.

Delicious! We love caramelized onions and the herbs and sherry were nice additions. I made extra to be able to have some in the freezer. Thanks Rita.

Delicious version of caramelised onions. I used sprinklings of dried thyme and rosemary because it was too dark, cold and windy to venture into the garden to find the fresh. In Australia, we say brown, rather than yellow, onions. Made and enjoyed for Zaar World Tour.
