Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Yellow onions
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions into evenly sized half-moons.
In a medium-sized skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it starts to bubble.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and sauté for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and slightly golden.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the ketchup, ensuring the onions are evenly coated.
Pour in the water and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer gently for about 8-10 minutes, or until the onions are tender and the liquid has reduced to a light, saucy consistency.
Remove from heat and serve warm over hot dogs or any grilled dish of your choice!
