Creamy Crispy Bacon Dip with Caramelized Onion

Ingredients

• 200 g Bacon (Chopped into small pieces)
• 1 Red onion (Peeled and thinly sliced or chopped; one medium onion)
• 40 g Sugar
• 200 g Cream cheese (Preferably at room temperature for easier mixing)
• Serrano ham chips (For serving; use as needed)

Steps

1. 1

   Cut the bacon into small pieces and thinly slice the red onion.

2. 2

   Place the bacon in a cold skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. Remove it and reserve the rendered fat in the skillet.

3. 3

   Add the red onion to the skillet and cook over medium-low heat in the bacon fat until softened and golden.

4. 4

   Add the sugar to the onion and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until caramelized and the onion is glossy and slightly thickened, approximately 5 to 8 minutes.

5. 5

   Add the cream cheese and mix until smooth and creamy.

6. 6

   Add the reserved crispy bacon and stir to distribute it throughout the dip.

7. 7

   Serve the dip warm or at room temperature with extra-crispy Serrano ham chips.

Notes

The post provides the ingredients but does not include detailed instructions; the cooking steps and quantity of chips are estimated. If the dip is too thick, it can be loosened with a small amount of milk or cream, although this is not part of the published recipe.
