Caramelized French Onion Dip
- Melt the butter with the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and stir to coat.
- Cook, stirring every few minutes, until the onions are soft, sticky and deep golden brown. Lower the heat if they brown too fast, and add a splash of water to loosen any dark bits stuck to the pan.
- Spread the onions on a plate and let them cool completely, then chop them finely.
- Stir the sour cream, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, garlic powder, pepper and remaining salt together in a bowl.
- Fold in the onions and most of the chives, then cover and refrigerate so the flavors blend.
- Stir, taste for salt and sprinkle with the rest of the chives before serving with chips.
