Spicy Onion Dip with a Zesty Twist
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon neutral oil (such as canola or vegetable oil)
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
Instructions
1. Prepare the Onion and Garlic
Begin by heating a tablespoon of neutral oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped yellow onion and minced garlic. Sauté for approximately 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent and starts to caramelize slightly.
2. Mix the Base Ingredients
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chili sauce, and lemon juice. Stir until smooth and well-incorporated.
3. Incorporate the Cooked Ingredients
Once the onion and garlic mixture is ready, allow it to cool for a few minutes, then add it to the mayonnaise blend. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
4. Season the Dip
Add Worcestershire sauce, paprika, seasoned salt, and dry mustard to the mixture. Stir everything together until the spices are fully integrated and the dip has a uniform texture.
5. Taste and Adjust
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if necessary. You might prefer a touch more salt or lemon juice depending on personal preference.
6. Chill Before Serving
Transfer the dip to a serving dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
7. Serve and Enjoy
Serve chilled with an array of crunchy snacks like chips, fresh veggies, or pretzels. Enjoy the zesty kick of this flavorful dip!
