- ½ Cup Sour Cream
- ¼ Cup Mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoon Unsalted Butter
- 1 tablespoon Chives Sliced
- ¼ teaspoon Salt Or To Taste
- ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper Or To Taste
Instructions
- Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions. Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and stir occasionally.

Mix to Taste: Pulse the onions into the dip lightly for a chunkier texture or blend more for a smoother dip.
Make Ahead: Prepare this dip a day in advance to let the flavors meld together even more.
