Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • sea salt to taste
  • 1 1/4 cups plain 2% Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup reduced-fat cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the thinly sliced onion and stir to coat in oil.
  • Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until soft and deep golden brown, about 25 minutes; reduce the heat if they begin to brown too quickly.
  • Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, and a pinch of sea salt; cook for about 5 more minutes until the garlic softens and the flavors meld.
  • Transfer the onions to a large bowl and roughly chop them once slightly cooled.
  • Add the Greek yogurt and softened cream cheese to the bowl and stir until smooth and well combined.
  • Taste and season with additional sea salt and black pepper as desired, then serve immediately.

Notes

  • The onions should be deeply golden for best flavor.
  • Reduce heat if onions start to burn.
  • Use full-fat yogurt for a richer dip if desired.
  • Let the dip rest briefly for flavors to meld.
