Actually Tasty Onion Dip

I have made several onion dips in the past (I won't eat potato chips without it!) and this is the first homemade version that I actually really liked. I hope you like it, too!

What You'll Need: 

2 tsp olive oil or 1 tbsp butter
1 medium to large onion, diced
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 1/2 cups sour cream
3/4 cup mayo
1/4 tsp garlic powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

How to Make It: 

Heat the oil or butter in a medium pan over medium heat. Add the onions and the salt, and let the onions caramelize, stirring occasionally (it took about 25 minutes on my stove.) The onions should be golden brown and they should be reduced in size- but not burned to a crisp! Remove the onions from the heat and let them cool a little. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the sour cream, mayo, garlic powder, and salt and pepper. Add the onions and stir well to combine. Cover the dip and refrigerate at least an hour to let the flavors mingle. Stir the dip again before serving.
