Top-of-stove rather than casserole, but this is always a hit. It's great as a side with lots of different dishes, but I think it's best of all served with seared scallops over it. So easy, and reheats well, too.
SOUSED GOURMET ONIONS
6 servings
5 medium onions, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup sherry
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, optional
I had onion casserole for the first time this past weekend. It was so good, I am going to try and get that recipe. I was surprised how mellow the onion flavor was, and the flavors reminded me of Thanksgiving.
I love German onion pie, as posted up thread. Here is a decidedly Tex-Mex version that I made tonight.
Easy as pie!
Caramelized Onion Pie -
2 T butter
4 cups of thinly sliced Vidalia (or other sweet onions)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 cup good quality salsa.
2 T diced jalapnos
1 9" unbaked pie crust
1/2 cup of cheese - I used Jarlsberg. The original recipe says cheddar. Any non processed cheese would woulk.
Pre-heat oven to 350
Melt butter in a large sauce pan over medium heat.
Add onions, salt, and thyme. Cover and cook for five minutes, stirring intermittently to make sure onions do not stick.
Reduce heat to low. Continue to cook until onions are caramelized.
Add salsa and jalapenos.
Pour onion mixture into pie crust.
Bake for 20 minutes. Top with shredded cheese.
Bake five minutes longer.
Remove for five minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This is our very favorite baked onion dip. I tried many recipes and this is the absolute best. It takes awhile to caramalize the onions but the results are delicious!
Beer Caramelized Onion Dip
Ingredients
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 medium yellow onions, diced
1/4 cup IPA beer
1/2 cup mayo
1/4 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1/4 cup sour cream
2 ounces swiss cheese, grated
2 ounces sharp white cheddar cheese, grated
2 ounces gruyere cheese, grated
crusty bread or tortilla chips, for serving
Instructions
In a large non-stick skillet, combine the butter and olive oil over medium-hight heat. Once the butter has melted, whisk in the brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt. Add the onions, and saute on medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Lower the heat to medium-low and caramelized the onions for approximately 40-45 minutes.
Once the onions have just begun to brown, add the IPA beer and increase the heat to medium. Cook until the beer has cooked out and reduced and all you have left are the caramelized onions. This will take 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, stir together the mayo, cream cheese, sour cream, a dash of salt and pepper and most of the cheese (reserving about 1 ounce to sprinkle on top). Add the caramelized onions to the mixture and stir to combine.
Pour the mixture into an 8x8 inch baking dish, and smooth to even out. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top and bake, uncovered, for about 20-25 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and just beginning to brown.
Remove from heat and serve immediately with crusty bread or tortilla chips.
Found this one, tried it.
It is really good, very close to what I had a couple of weeks ago.
I would recommend it.
