  • \u00bc teaspoon black pepper<\/li>

      \n\t\t
      1. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil and butter until melted. Add onions and saut\u00e9 for 10-15 minutes, stirring often, until they are lightly browned.<\/li>
      2. Stir in soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Continue cooking, stirring often, for another 15-20 minutes until the onions are deep golden brown and very soft.<\/li>
      3. Once the onions are caramelized, add garlic, thyme, parsley, and pepper. Continue cooking for 1 minute.<\/li>
      4. Pour in sherry and white wine to deglaze the pan, using a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.<\/li>
