Caramelizing enhances the onion's inherent sweetness. If you can't find sweet onions, substitute two large Spanish onions and add a tablespoon of sugar. This dip is best served warm. If time is tight, you can caramelize the onions (step 2) earlier in the day; combine with the other ingredients and bake just before guests arrive. Serve with a crunchy dipper like Melba toast.
How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°.
Step 2
Melt 1 1/2 teaspoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and 1/8 teaspoon salt to pan; cook 15 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Add garlic; cook 10 minutes or until onion is golden brown and very tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; cool 5 minutes.
Step 3
Combine the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt, mayonnaise, and next 4 ingredients (through Worcestershire sauce) in a medium bowl, stirring until smooth. Stir in onion mixture. Transfer mixture to a 1-quart baking dish coated with cooking spray.
Step 4
Melt remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons butter. Combine melted butter and panko. Sprinkle panko mixture evenly over onion mixture. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until thoroughly heated and bubbly. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve hot.
