Caramelized Onions and Mushrooms


If I ever want to impress guests at a BBQ, I'm definitely going to make this. These mushrooms and onions make an otherwise boring burger into somewhat of a gourmet meal!

The meaty texture of the mushrooms, and soft sweet taste of onions is perfect to top grilled burgers.

Caramelized Onions and Mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 onion, sliced
  • 1/3 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • glug of red wine
Melt butter in skillet. Add onions and sautee over medium heat for 20-30 minutes. 

Add garlic and thyme; cook for a minute. 

Add mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook on low heat until tender, about 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently. 

Add broth and wine to deglaze the pan. Simmer for 5 minutes until reduced.
