Ingredients
- 4 bacon strips
- 2 sweet onions, halved and thinly sliced
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon dry sherry

Preparation
Step 1
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet.
Remove to a paper towel lined plate to cool.
Crumble.
Add onions, sugar, and salt to bacon fat in the skillet and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring often, until onions turn a deep golden brown color.
This can take as long as 20 minutes. If onions start to burn, turn heat down to medium-low.
Add sherry and cook 1 minute.
Stir in thyme and tabasco.
Remove from heat.
Mix together sour cream and mayo in a medium bowl.
Add crumbled bacon, cheese, onion mixture, and black pepper. Mix together well and transfer to a 2-cup baking dish.
Bake 20 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown on top.
