Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp miso
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 2 tbsp butter or olive oil
  • 2 medium onions diced - yellow or sweet
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup mayo or sub with the same amount of Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp paprika or cayenne for a spicy kick
  • Salt if needed
  • Optional: chopped chives for garnish

Instructions

  • Stir miso and water together until creamy and combined. Set aside.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook stirring for 30-35 minutes until browned and caramelized.
  • Add garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add the miso mixture to the onions. Stir together to combine.
  • Remove from heat and transfer to a mixing bowl. Let cool to room temperature. I like to place in the fridge for 10 minutes to speed up this process.
  • Add Greek yogurt, mayo, pepper, onion powder, and paprika, and mix until combined. Taste to add salt, if needed.
  • You can enjoy right away, but I recommend covering and chilling for at least 1 hour so the flavors can meld and develop.
  • Serve chilled or at room temperature, sprinkled with chopped chives if using. I like to serve with potato chips, veggies, bread, or crackers.
