Number Of Ingredients 10

4 bacon strips, chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 pounds yellow onions, peeled, halved, and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon coarse salt
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 small shallots, thinly sliced into rings
For serving: potato chips, celery, carrots, or other raw vegetables

Steps:

  • In a small skillet, cook the bacon until the fat is rendered out. Drain bacon, reserving the fat in the pan.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add onions and salt. Cook onions over low heat, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and deep golden in color, about 1 hour. Add water if needed. Add the vinegar in the last minute of cooking. Cool to room temperature.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, sour cream, onions, and bacon.
  • Add vegetable oil to the skillet with bacon fat. Reheat on medium-high until the oil shimmers. Add the shallots, lower the heat, and cook until golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes. Drain, and garnish dip with fried shallots.

This caramelized onion and bacon dip was a hit at my last party! The combination of sweet and savory flavors was perfect, and the potato chips and crudité were the perfect accompaniments. I'll definitely be making this dip again.
