6 servings
45 minutes total (Active 10 minutes)

Ingredients

  • 2 lb Vidalia onions, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, leaves only
  • 1 orange, for zest
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • ½ cup bourbon
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Steps

    1. Chop onions; remove thyme leaves from stem. Peel a 1-inch piece of orange skin (no white). Preheat large saute pan over medium heat 2–3 minutes. Place butter, thyme, and onions in pan. Cook and stir 4–5 minutes or until the onions are translucent.
    2. Add the remaining ingredients into the pan and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until a thick syrup forms (it should coat the back of a spoon), about 30 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Serve.
