Caramelized red onions, brown sugar, garlic, and red wine vinegar simmer together to make a sweet and savory Red Onion Chutney, perfect for a sandwich spread, side dish or crackers. Store in the refrigerator where it'll stay good for a few months! This makes 2 pints of chutney.
Finely chop the onions with a knife. I do not recommend using a food processor as the onions will turn into mush.
Add olive oil and onions into a large saucepan over medium heat, stirring until onions are softened and translucent, about 10 minutes. During this time the onions will release liquid, that’s ok!
Add brown sugar, minced garlic and salt and pepper into the pot, stirring to coat the onions.
Add red wine vinegar and bring to a low boil, continue stirring until vinegar evaporates and chutney thickens, this takes about 5-10 minutes.
Pour chutney into glass jars, and then add lids. Allow to cool down on your counter for 1 hour. Put jars in the refrigerator and use how you like. This chutney will last for 3-4 months in the refrigerator.
