For an even richer flavor, consider using brown sugar instead of white sugar during the caramelization process. Greek yogurt adds a delightful tang and helps to lighten the dip without sacrificing creaminess. If you're short on time, you can use a mandoline to ensure even slicing of the onions, which will promote more consistent cooking. Garnish with fresh chives or a sprinkle of paprika for a pop of color and added flavor.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
30 mins
Begin by heating the vegetable oil in a large skillet over low heat. Add the thinly sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens but does not brown. This gentle caramelization process should take approximately 20-30 minutes.
02
Step
10 mins
Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the butter to the skillet, allowing it to melt and coat the onions. Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the onions. Continue cooking and stirring frequently until the onions achieve a deep, rich brown color and are very tender, about 8-10 minutes more. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely to room temperature.
03
Step
5 mins
In a separate bowl, combine the sour cream, Greek yogurt, and mayonnaise. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking.
04
Step
2 mins
Once the caramelized onions have cooled, finely mince them on a cutting board. Stir the minced onions into the sour cream mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
05
Step
5 mins
Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. This step is crucial for achieving the best possible taste. Serve chilled with your favorite chips, crackers, or crudités.
