Recipe Introduction

"Trust us, you're not going to want to make onion dip from a packet ever again after trying this recipe. Not only does it come together quickly and easily, it is full of flavor from charred sweet onions (we recommend Vidalia onions), Parmesan cheese, a splash of your favorite hot sauce, and fresh chives. This delicious party dip will be devoured at any get-together and pairs well with any type of chip, from tortilla to pita to potato. You can even serve it with crudités, if you prefer."

List of Ingredients

◦  1 medium-size sweet onion
◦  1 Tbsp olive oil
◦  16 ounces sour cream
◦  2 ounces grated Parmesan cheese (about ½ cup)
◦  1 tsp kosher salt
◦  ½ tsp black pepper
◦  ½ tsp hot sauce
◦  ¼ cup chopped fresh chives
◦  Chips, for serving


Recipe

Slice the onion crosswise into ½-inch-thick rings. Brush onion rings evenly with olive oil.

Grill the slices on unoiled grates over medium-high heat (400° to 450° F) until grill marks appear, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from grill. Cool 10 minutes, and chop.

Stir together chopped onion, sour cream, grated Parmesan cheese, kosher salt, black pepper, and hot sauce in a bowl. Sprinkle with chopped chives. Serve with chips.
