    Preparation Steps

    1

    Peel and thinly slice the red onions to ensure they caramelize quickly.

    2

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, then add the onions. Sauté until they are a deep golden brown and caramelized, about 15 minutes.

    3

    Sprinkle the brown sugar over the onions and stir to coat, enhancing their sweetness and adding a glossy finish.

    4

    Pour in the red wine and bring to a simmer. Allow the alcohol to evaporate for about 5 minutes.

    5

    Add the beef broth and balsamic vinegar, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for another 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your liking.

    6

    Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then stir to combine. For a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender to purée until smooth.

    7

    Serve immediately over steak, roasted meats, or grilled vegetables, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
