Caramelized Onions and Carrots

By bakers_delight85

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
• 1 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil
• 12 medium carrots (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1/4-inch thick rounds
• 3 large yellow onions (about 2 1/2 pounds), cut into thin wedges
• 2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
• 1 tsp. salt
• Freshly ground pepper to taste
• 1/3 cup minced fresh parsley

Preparation

Step 1

In a large saucepan or skillet, melt the butter with the olive oil over high heat. Swirl to coat the pan, add the carrots and onions, and sauté, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, cover the pan, and cook for 10 minutes. Uncover the pan, increase heat to high, and add the sugar, salt, and pepper.
Saute until the vegetables are lightly caramelized, about 5 minutes. Add the parsley, and stir to combine. Serve hot.
