Port Glazed Caramelized Onions

One of our favorite summertime favorites are burgers on the grill.   What a better topping than caramelized onions and fresh mozzarella. I thought I would make homemade hamburger buns and found this King Arthur Flour recipe that is absolutely delicious.  This dinner was a triple crown winner – wonderful buns, great burgers and unbelievably delicious onions.  Warm weather is here – time to bring out the grill and try this favorite.

Ingredients
  1. 1 tablespoon olive oil
  2. 2 medium red onions, sliced thin
  3. 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
  4. 1/4 cup port
  5. Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sliced onions. Cook onions, stirring frequently until soft, approx. 10 minutes. Season onions with salt and pepper and fresh thyme. Add port wine and reduce heat to medium low. Continue cooking until the wine is reduced and onions are brown and caramelized. These can be made ahead and reheated prior to serving.
Notes
  1. I topped grilled hamburgers with slices of fresh mozzarella and port caramelized onions. These onions would also be terrific with grilled meat, chicken, use as a topping on flat bread, or serve with goat cheese on an appetizer tray.
