Servings: 12 servings
- 6 strips of bacon cooked crisp and minced
- 3 onions thinly sliced or chopped (any variety works)
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 1 1/4 cup sour cream
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup mayo
- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 green onions white and green parts
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- salt and pepper
- Chips for dipping
In a large skillet over medium-low, add butter to melt. Add in all of the onions and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring frequently. Add in the wine, a few splashes at a time (it will evaporate). Turn heat to low and allow onions to continue to cook until amber brown. Let cool to warm.
Cream together the mayo, sour cream and cream cheese. Add in green onions (reserving a pinch for topping), garlic, worcestershire, and all the seasonings. Mix well until creamy and smooth.
Fold in most of the bacon and caramelized onions. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed. Sprinkle with remaining bacon and green onions.
Serve with chips!
