Makes 4 servings

• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon butter
• 1 small yellow onion
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1 shot bourbon* (optional)

1. Heat vegetable oil in sauté pan over high heat.
2. Add butter to pan and brown slightly.
3. Add onions to pan and sear for about 1 to 2 minutes.
4. Add brown sugar and salt. Stir well and continue cooking for approximately 10 minutes or until onions are light brown, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
