Directions

  1. 1

    Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add thinly sliced onions and stir to coat for about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and reduce heat to medium-low. Continue cooking for 30-40 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions turn golden brown.

    In a medium bowl, using a handheld mixer, blend together the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, ground black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth and free of lumps.

  4. 4

    Add the cooled caramelized onions to the cream cheese mixture, reserving a tablespoon for garnish. Mix until the onions are well incorporated.

  5. 5

    Cover the mixture and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or until ready to be served. Give it a quick stir before serving.

  6. 6

    Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with the reserved caramelized onions and sliced green onions. Enjoy with potato chips as dippers.
