Recipe Instructions:
- In a medium sauté pan, heated over medium heat, add olive oil and onions.
- Caramelize the onions in oil; they will be completely browned and be reduced in size by about half. This will take about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, stir together all the remaining ingredients.
- After the onions are caramelized, remove them from heat and allow them to cool. (Although it’s tempting to skip this step, cooling the onions is essential for achieving a thick and creamy dip.)
- Stir the caramelized onions into the sour cream mixture until well combined.
- Let the dip chill for at least 8 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together and for the dip to reach its full creamy texture.
Tips and Serving Suggestions:
- For an extra flavor boost, consider adding a splash of Worcestershire sauce or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like chives or parsley.
- Serve this delicious French onion dip with an assortment of dippable goodies such as potato chips, pretzels, or fresh-cut vegetables like carrots, celery, and bell peppers.
- To make this recipe ahead of time, prepare the dip up to 24 hours in advance and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Feel free to adjust the seasonings to suit your taste preferences. Add more garlic powder for extra zing or reduce the cayenne pepper for a milder flavor profile.
