Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 large yellow onions
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 4 slices bacon strips
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions into even rings.
In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium-low heat until melted and combined.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet, sprinkle with the sugar, salt, and pepper, and stir to coat evenly.
Cook the onions for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they turn golden brown and caramelized. Adjust heat as needed to avoid burning.
Meanwhile, cook the bacon strips in a separate skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Once cool, chop into small pieces.
Once the onions are caramelized, turn off the heat and stir in the chopped bacon.
To assemble the topping, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the warm onion and bacon mixture. Let it sit for 2 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt gently.
Serve the topping warm over your favorite burgers and enjoy!
