  • Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion; cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Continue cooking and stirring until onion is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes more. Transfer onion to a large bowl.
