Hard Cider Onions for Hot Dogs or Sausages

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 large sweet onions, sliced lengthwise
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic sea salt (such as Morton’s)
• 1/2 cup hard cider (such as Woodchuck Amber)
• 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 pinch white sugar, or to taste (optional)

Directions

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and garlic salt; cook and stir until tender and just starting to brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Add hard cider and black pepper; simmer, covered, until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.

Uncover skillet and cook until cooking liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes. Add sugar as needed.
