Ingredients:
Instructions:
1.1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
1.2. Add the finely chopped onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and caramelized. This should take about 20-25 minutes. If the onions start to stick or brown too quickly, reduce the heat slightly and add a splash of water.
1.3. In the last few minutes of cooking, stir in the minced garlic and chopped thyme. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and the thyme is well-distributed.
1.4. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the onion mixture cool completely.
2.1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until smooth and well blended.
3.1. Once the caramelized onion mixture has cooled, add it to the bowl with the sour cream mixture. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
3.2. Taste the dip and season with salt and pepper as needed. Adjust any other seasonings to your preference.
4.1. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a lid, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
4.2. Before serving, give the dip a good stir. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh thyme if desired.
- Serve your French Onion Dip with an assortment of chips, crackers, or fresh vegetables for dipping. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Make sure to caramelize the onions slowly over low heat to bring out their natural sweetness.
- Use full-fat sour cream and mayonnaise for the creamiest, most luxurious texture.
- If you prefer a smoother dip, blend the mixture after combining all ingredients.
- Let the dip sit in the fridge for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Garnish with additional fresh thyme or chopped green onions for a touch of color and flavor.
With this French Onion Dip recipe, you get to enjoy a rich blend of flavors from caramelized onions and fresh thyme. It's a quick and easy way to impress your guests or simply add some gourmet flair to your snack game. Serve it chilled with your favorite dippers and enjoy!
