Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 links Bratwurst sausages
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 large Yellow onions
- 1 teaspoon Balsamic vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
Instructions
Begin by preparing the onions: slice the yellow onions thinly.
In a large non-stick frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the sliced onions.
Stir the onions to coat them in the butter and oil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the onions slowly, stirring occasionally, for about 30 minutes until they are golden brown and caramelized.
Toward the end of the caramelization process, add the balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the onions, mix well, and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
While the onions are caramelizing, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Add the bratwurst sausages to the grill and cook, turning occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are cooked through with an internal temperature of at least 160°F (71°C).
During the last 5 minutes of grilling, top each bratwurst link with a slice of cheddar cheese, allowing it to melt.
Once the bratwursts are cooked and the cheese is melted, remove them from the grill.
To serve, place the cheese-topped brats on a plate and spoon a generous amount of caramelized onions over each.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your delicious Keto Cheese Brats with Caramelized Onions!
