Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 large sweet onions finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 1 1/2 cups sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 2 tablespoons parsley finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chives thinly sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions
 

  • In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté for 5 minutes then reduce the heat to medium-low. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are fully caramelized, about 1 hour.
  • When there are about 10 minutes of cook time left, add the minced garlic to the onions.
  • Remove the onions from the pan and allow to cool for 20 minutes.
  • In a bowl, stir together the sour cream, mayo, onions, parsley, chives, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but ideally overnight.
