Best Ever Caramelized Onions
5-7 cloves garlic, sliced
1 large yellow or sweet yellow onion, sliced
2-4 T butter (butter is recommended if possible)
2-4 T Sensei Sauce or to taste
Start butter over medium low heat in frying pan.
Add sliced garlic and sauté for a couple of minutes, making sure they don’t burn.
Add onion.
Cover and cook over medium low heat until starting to turn tender; higher heat might burn the garlic and onion and make them crisp.
If this happens turn down heat; caramelized onions are by nature soft!
Add Sensei Sauce.
Continue to cook covered over medium low or low heat until desired doneness, stirring often enough to prevent sticking and burning.
Turn heat to low and keep warm as needed.
“Remember, the longer they sit, the better they git!”
