These savory Tennessee Onions are a delightful side dish, perfect for any meal. Sweet onions are slow-cooked to tender perfection, creating a caramelized and flavorful treat.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned (about 10-15 minutes).
Stir in the brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
Pour in the beef broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-30 minutes, or until the onions are very tender and caramelized.
Serve hot.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use a tablespoon of olive oil in addition to the butter. Serve with crusty bread for dipping in the delicious sauce!
